Could someone point me to where I can find frame / chassis specs for 1973 2WD and 1990 4WD Suburban? I am trying to see how hard it will be to move 1990 body over to 1973 frame.

Im not sure of the specs, but i put a 91 body on a 80 frame, only thing that was different was the body mounts of the frame have a hole cut in the center of them, and they where a different size, so i had to use both my urethane and stock mounts in certain spots. And sorry but i do not remember which one was bigger. The 73 frame could be different all together though, so you may want to go to a parts house and look at both body bushings to give you an idea if they are similar or not.
73-80 used smaller hole in frame holes for body mounts.
81-up had bigger hole in frame mounts for body mounts.
on my trucks i have done 81-up bodys on my older late 70's frames . all i had to do was body mounts for the year of the frame .
