72 C10 conversion from 2wd to 4wd

I've got a 1972 2wd C10 longbed. I want to convert it to a 4wd by swapping my body onto a 4wd frame. There's a complete 68 4wd rolling chassis on ebay that I want to buy but I want to make sure I can put my 72 body on a 68 frame. Are there any differences in dimensions between 67-72 4wd frames that I might run into?

No troubles at all. Your body will fit, you will need 4wd body mounts though, and some say you must have a high hump trans cover. But mine looked like it would clear with the low hump.
