94 in to a 63

So my DD a 94 silverado ext cab finally gave out. I got hit on the passenger side and a few weeks later the transmission gave out but with every sad story there a happy story.. I want to swap whatever I can in to my 63 suburban starting with the front suspension, any ideas on that? Should or can I do a full crossmember swap like with the 67-80 crossmembers? Can I use the brake buster? Any input helps.

You can not use the front suspension on your '63. The '88 and up suspensions and steering are completely different. Yes you can use the brake booster. It will be a direct bolt up with one of my booster brackets. You could use the engine with either the TBI or change it over to a carb. The seats should work, but depending on the style of the seat(s), they may limit access to the back seat in your Burb.
