I was wondering the same thing. I saw a guy that used to live out by my parents do this to a 72 back in the late 80's but I never went over to look at it close up. I wonder if it would be any easier to swap the spring hangers, etc. from a later model to the earlier frame if you couldn't find a good 67-72 4x4 frame?? Might be a better way to do it. At least you wouldn't have to worry about body mounts etc. I wonder if anybody has doe this? ...Joe
