It doesn't fit either the front end or the back end unless you do some fabrication. In other words, it is NOT a bolt-in.

you should be able to do the gears. Enough folks here have done it. I am sure that you will be able to learn what you need from these guys here. They are the best. Richard.

Both will fit but with substantial hacking. THe rear end is actually a good match fot the 67 lenghtwise, and it has discs on the rear Grind off all coilover bits and covert to leafspring, not hard.(for the front suspension) You have to slice the framerails off a few inches forward of the firewall and splice in the 94 bits, but when it's done it looks great and is supposed to drive wonderfully. That said, I've only ever seen one person swap it over lock stock and barrel, and he's a pro. THAT would take a while and be a pain in the butt. Worth it? Absolutely! Major hackery? YEP!
