Body Swap

Will a 1971 F100 Body fit on my 1972 F250 High boy? Anything in particular I need to look at?

Thanks Bob

Should be a bolt hole to bolt hole exchange. I would try to lift the cab and front clip together so that you don't have to re-align everything.

Thanks that is the plan. The body that is on the chasis now is pretty bad and I may have found a donor for 500.00.

Thanks again
