60' frame vs 66'

[55dude]

dudes, do 60' frames have different cab mounting points than say 66'? the reason i ask is the 60' has the torsion bar front end vs the standard a-arms on a 63' on up. i have a 59' that is on a 63'-70' frame and have a sweet running RUSTY 60' i was thinking about using under the 59' can anyone tell me the difference? thanks

Dunno bout the cab mounts but i know the bumpers and bed mounts are different between the 60-62 and 63-66

As already stated the bumpers are different, plus the front cab mounts are different, but just need to drill holes. I believe the rear cab mounts are the same. The bed mounts are different, but there again just need to drill holes. I do believe the radiator support mounts are the same too.

Yes you can...you could also do it with the '60-'62 cab supports....just have to drill the bolt hole. The shape of the front cab supports are the same from '60-'66. They have a double step in them that will work on either the '60-'62 frames or the '63-'66 frames. The difference is the location of the bolt hole for the cab mount assembly.
