66 body on 67-72 frame?

I was wondering how much different the mounting locations were from a 60-66 to a 67-72 swb. I was wanting to buy a 72 4x4 shortbox frame (know of one and seem to be a somewhat rare piece) and drivetrain to drop a 1966 body on and was wondering how much extra fabrication would be required. Has anybody done it or seen it done? Any information would be great. thanks

Do you have to change the frame horns to run a 60-66 bumper?
