Suburban Body 4WD vs 2WD

IS the Suburban body the same for 1964 4WD and 2WD? I know the frame is different. There may be an opportunity for me to pick up a 2WD complete. The body appears in pictures to have a lot less rust and rot than mine so I was thinking of taking a closer look. If it's in better shape I would like to swap the body over to mine. Easy swap or a lot of modifications?

Re: Suburban Body 4WD vs 2WD

Don't quote me 100% but I do think the bodies are the same. Mounting points are the same. Frames are different but have the specific mounting point to fit the body. Only thing that might be different in the bodies could be the center hump. I think 4x4 had the high hump, to help clear the transfer case. 2WD, though can have the high hump, I think they were more common with the low hump.
