Sorry trying to make a nice streetable truck. I have a 67 swb stepside that I am building that has 6 Lug drum brakes no power assist. I also have a 1985 swb with disc brake on front drums on rear with anti sway on front and rear body on 85 is crap. Looking at putting the 67 on the 85 frame. How difficult would this be?beer
Welcome Aboard, I'm not sure if the 85 still has the front crossmember that unbolts. You could check on swapping parts over, if your early C10 frame is in good shape. If not can't imagine it will be that difficult to mount the body on the 85 chassis. As long as Ya don't mind fabricating your own mounts. Keep us posted, and post some pictures ! ! sign0016 bowtieb
Too difficult. It is always better to keep the original frame.
The '67-72's were good right from the factory. If you want front disc brakes simply update using replacement components, but don't throw the baby out with the bath water.
Welcome to the website. Looks like you have a bitchin' truck there!
