Chassis lengths

I have a 2 wheel drive 72 crewcab shortbox that I want to convert to a 4x4. The truck runs and is in great shape and cost me $800!!!I want to do a chassis swap. The 2 wheel drive has a length of 139" hub to hub. Is there a 4x4 chassis 73-79 that has the same length hub to hub. If not, then it looks like chassis cutting is going to be my game. I would like to find a 3/4 ton 4x4 rolling chassis that would be close.

If your wb is 139", a supercab sb frame (78) is the same length. Although the measurement depends on how you are measuring compared to Ford. They have 150" for a crewcab wb.
