Differences were:
1. Radiator mounting. Radiator shell was quite different also.
2. Front shock mounts were different
3. Cab mounts changed (about 1951? not sure)
4. Extra holes in rear face of rear crossmember for mounting of bumperettes.
5. Master cylinder bracket changed in late 1967 for a dual circuit master cylinder which faced to the rear. There was an access cover in the driver's side floor board to fill it with fluid.
6. Engine mount was different. No longer used the wide bracket that spanned the front frame cross member. Had a rubber mount with studs that bolted to the bottom of the engine and then to the frame. The holes that the 230 engine mount bracket mentioned above bolted to were still there but smaller.
7. The frame extensions for mounting the winch were longer as the winch set about 2.25 inches further forward.

I think this about covers it. Hope this helps you on your project.
