It's going to depend on what you want to do. If you are looking to build a lifted truck, then you could try a 73-91 Burb chassis. There is a board member here who has one he is building like that. The chassis swap is not an easy swap. You may want to look for boardmember ARBHauler's profile. He has a nice writeup on his webpage detailing a 2wd to 4wd conversion on his 72 GMC Suburaban. :) ampfiddler 06-09-2006, 07:09 PM Thank's 4 the response folk's . Esp bagged91 . i'll definatly keep the truck low and more stock with an exception to a chrome wheel . will 73 -91 apply ? Thank's Bowtie468 06-10-2006, 06:59 AM welcome from Louisiana !!

I don't know about the 'burbs but I know a pickup cab has to be either lifted or channeled to fit on a 73+ frame.

If it's a Chevy and you want to swap it around you can just about bet that someone has done it or at least tried at on time or another.
