67-72 frames all the same?

I may pick up a 67 frame soon because its a short frame that I wish to convert my long bed too.
I know many things interchange, but some 67 stuff is one off.
So, are the frames the same for all years 67-72? I mean same as all sheet metal mounting points. I know they all had same wheel base.
Just making sure before popping for it...

For some reason my reply got lost..must have pushed the wrong button.
AFAIK the frames (2WD) are the same. Maybe the 3/4 ton being a little thicker.
Forgot what other plans you had (CV swap?)
For a 72 project, I bought a 77 roller chassis to put the 72 cab on. That way the disc brakes and P/S are there and the rear of the frame is wider so the gas tank can be laced there. This gets the tank out of the cab.

i plan to do the CV swap and axle flip. Nothing crazy just lower and make dependable is the idea.
