Re: rear end replacement
You'll at least have to ad perches for your leajs or trailing arms, whichever your truck has. check the distance from wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface and compare the 2.

Re: rear end replacement
That '93 rear end will be a lot wider than your '66 rear end. IIRC it's about 2" per side, so ~4" overall. Other than that, you will have to do some cutting and welding with the trailing arm mounts. Then you'll have to fabricate a panhard bar mount.
