1973 body/interior on different chassis

What year(s) chassis will a 1973 body/interior fit on? I assume it will fit on more than just the original '73. TIA

73 to 79 depending on the wheel base.

Thanks!! One more question: What modifications (if any) would need to be made to the cab if you put a cab from a 2X4 and put it on a 4x4 chassis (other than o hole in the floor for the stick shift to fit through)?

Rear cab mount holes are different on 4x4 highboy frames. Would have to re-drill holes for 2wd. Bed holes are also a little different from 4x4 highboy than 2wd. All will fit, but some alteration needed.
