Also have a short box stepside from a 1972 Cheyenne 10 I plan on using with the cab. Full body restore is planned and no fuel tanks as its going on propane.

Look up member "MUDDER", either message him or do a search for his old posts and he should explain how to do it. Trevor

Re: 72 gmc cab on 73 4x4 frame
Should look good when it's done, rather lifted then lowered. Canada is unforgiving with slammed trucks and cars

Re: 72 gmc cab on 73 4x4 frame
i thought about doing this, then thought it would be easier to use the srping mounts from the 73 frame onto the 72 frame, but i got lucky and got a 70 4x4 frame. It can be done custom cab mounts, won't sit down low on the frame.
