Maybe you could have gotten the whole frame and swapped your body on top. I don't think the mounts are the same so some fab work would have to be done.

No.. I was talking a complete frame swap. The only advantage is the frame is bent for the later power steering box. You can just use a rez kit for that though. The control arms will bolt up to the 63-66 trucks.. Sorry about confusion. It really isn't my attempt.. :lol:
