65 c10 frame swap

[Richarde2194]

Have a 65 Chevy c10 long box. I bought it already lifted and the owner was not sure wat king of frame it was sitting on, but the frame isn't in good shape..and the front axle is blown up. So I bought a 72 k30 to swap my 65 body over too...just want to kno if anyone has done this before and what kind of problems they have ran into

Frame horns will probably be your only real issue. The rear cab mounts also iirc.

Okay that's what I have found so far...just didn't kno if there was anything else I should be aware of before I start the project. Thanks for the help

I'm using a '71 frame & rear mounts, front frame horns plus the radiator support mounts MAY be different, but I don't have a '66K frame to compare to, just a C frame. And the frame horns are a little shorter in height than the '71 frame. Come to think of it I think the whole frame is about a 1/2" different in height.

It's highly discouraged for a 2wd because of the way it ends up sitting on the frame, but for a 4x4, I haven't heard anything in these forums good or bad.
