This has likely been discussed before but I couldn't find anything on a search. What would be the main considerations when looking at a 73/74 model versus a later model 77/78. In searching I did find reference to the older models attached the frame to the body in a different way and not as good as in the newer models, also the floor beams were thicker in the later models which allowed for more insulation but a little less interior height. There was also something about the rear axle's and how they were attached or there diameter versus the later models. Are there any other major design differences over the 4 or 5 years of models that would make a later model year far superior to the older year? Is there a spreadsheet or chart that lists all the differences in the model year designs?

Thanks
Bill
