Difference in frames? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

What is the difference between a 64 c20 frame and that of a 67-72 c10?

I have a 64 frame and my neighbor has a bent frame on his c10. Will it be a straight swap for him?

Anyone?

I'm not positive, but after looking at pictures of both I believe there are some differences that would keep it from being a bolt-in swap.

Edit:
At a quick glance the cab mounts and front frame horns look different to me. Maybe it'll work with a few mods? First pic is a 66 and second is a 68.

I think the cab mounts themselvaes are different, but I also think a tape measure would be your best friend here, I think it will work.
