Frame, Cab Mount Spec's

[BurlyCrew]

Do any of you know a site that lists Frame/Chassis specs for 60-66 & 67-72 C-10 Trucks? My main objective is if a 66 truck will fit on a 67-72 frame, mostly concerned with cab mounting locations if they are the same....
Also is wheel base the same? I'm talking about a short bed C-10

Thanks!

I can always make some adjustments in cab mount locations, etc...

I used 63-66 cab on 67-72 frame in the search box at the top and clicked on 67-72chevytrucks.com

This is one of the threads that came up.

Just for the simple fact of shortening a 66 long bed to short bed and have access to a rolling chassis from a Short Bed 69..... May or may not be easier than shortening my frame, will have to see how close these frames are and/or what modifications are necessary, just thought someone may have 1st hand knowledge on this and/or done this before...

on the later frame, you will have to change the frt frame horns, the rad i believe mounts differently, the cab mounts are different and some of the crossmembers may be different. with the 66 you just shorten the frame and you maintain the proper frame nbrs that match the cab ser #.

Yeah that's true, I may just shorten the frame and be done with it, and maybe less work....
