Since we are talking about frames I have a question. How much difference is there between a 69-72 Blazer frames and a 73-82? I realize that the 2wd 69-72's were coil spring in the rear while the 73-82's are leaf. Beyond that, how far off is the wheel base?

What I'm getting at here is how much fab work would it take to put a 1st gen BLazer body on a 2nd gen frame?
