92'-96' SC frame/running gear under 77' SC

I've looked but haven't found anything about it.

Would there be any major issues to deal with putting a 77' Super Cab onto a 92'-96' Super Cab frame and running gear. The frame would have a D60 swap, shackle reversal, Super Duty leaf springs and flatbed.

I know the later frame rails are wider and new cab mounts will need to be made and it isn't a bolt in swap. It will be taken down to a bare frame, boxed, blasted, prime, painted etc.

The cab and front will also be taken down to bare metal and rebuilt also.

Just wondering if there were any issues that would cause problems.

Cheers, Allen

I could see integrating the 92'-96' running gear controls into the 77' Cab being a bit of a challenge, but do-able.


I think I have see other people section in the firewall of the newer vehicle to help with all the electrical connections and have a more modern Heater / AC set-up.

Won't have AC & just need a most basic heater for defogging windshield on occasion, cause I'm on Big Island.

Really won't be much electrical stuff in cab, all aftermarket gauges & a built, twin carb 300 6 engine. Going as basic & machanal as possible with minimal electrical components.

Be built like a 70's FJ40, basic & rugged. :-)

Cheers, Allen
