Frame Help!

Hi, I'm new to the forum and i wanted to know if a 67 swb frame is the same as a 72 swb and if everything on a 72 will pretty much bolt on to it. Thanks.
All help will be appreciated.

Re: Frame Help!

It should be pretty much the same with the exception of if you have an early 67 frame, it will not have a curve or relief in the frame to bolt a powersteering gearbox without some mods or spacers....

Re: Frame Help!

actually, the 67 frame is a tad bt narrower up front too.
For all practical reasons.. they are pretty much the same.
