There were differences in suspensions mainly on 4wd models. Power assist steering up to 68 and GMC specific colors like Palomino Tan, Terrace Blue and Ivory lasted till 1968.
Thanks. Since my knowledge only extends to '66 on these trucks and there was a major body change in '67 I *assumed* that was when the change took place. I knew the v6 continued on, but felt from the few experiences I have had with the later truck that the rest of the vehicle was the same. But thats what is good about the group, more people with more knowledge.
Should have asked you before I posted. since I know you have the later year truck.
