C10 rear end in my '67 C20 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've been lurking for awhile -- I've got to say what a damn fine bunch of folks you all are!

I want to swap the full floater rear end in my '67 C20 for a '67-'72 C10 rear. Will my stock driveshaft and u-joint bolt right up to the 1/2 ton rear, or are there some differences?

I think you will find a difference in lenght on the shafts, as well as u joint size. I havent swapped a 3/4 ton coil rear to 1/2 ton, but have done a leaf truck.... I think there is a difference in the track bar & bracket(1/2 to 3/4). good luck, crazyL
