I know the wheel base is different between the lwb 67-72 and 73-87, but does anyone know about the swb? I was thinking that if you could get a short stepside, you could just change the cab and leave the same bed.

Also, I know it would be a lot of work, but does anyone think it could be done cheaper that just buying a 67-72 4x4? Of course, where I live, you never see a 67-72 4x4 for sale for less than $6-8,000. Some people that live near me just got a 69 CST/10 4x4, but I have no idea how much they paid
