body interchangability
Hey all,
I have two big questions that I will combine into one post.
First, what is the difference between the 78-79 bronco mounting body mount points and frame and the late 70's pickup cab mounting. Specifically the area under the cab. It looks like a LWB frame could (theoretically, I am not condoning this) be shortened to fit a short box but how did they get this truck down to 104" wheel base? Thanks for any discriptions.
Secondly what is the difference between a 73-79 regular cab mounting and a 80-90's cab mounting? specifically late 80's if there is a difference in those 80-90's
Thanks for any insight especially people who have tried (and even better succeded) at these customizations.
