The '60-'62 truck frames are wider, than the '63-'66 truck frames, so the mounting locations of the front & rear frame-to-cab supports do not line up. Although the windshield/A-pillar changed in 1964, the frame style changed in 1963.

Tony on the 60-62 where does the width differential take place in the frame. the front section is the same as the later ones is it not. the rear of the earlier frames are about 42". the position where the frt cross member(2 wheel drive)goes in is the same right up to 87 is it not. just curious ron | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 1,552 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 1,552 | On the '60-'62 Chevy trucks, the cab mounting & rear frame rail dimensions are:
