Are you just replacing a badly rusted cab or do you have other plans? The major rust areas can be repaired without removing the cab. If you have major firewall/cowl rust or drip rail rust along with the standard rockers, corners and kick panels then it is best to just replace the cab...but I am sure you already know that. Have fun!
Remove the tank, seat and doors before lifting it off since it will make it much lighter.

Hello Stllookn,
I noticed you had a couple comments about getting a new cab if you have rust in you drip rail. Could you take a look at my pictures? I am thinking about having some patch work done or replacing the drip rail, but i know almost nothing about working on trucks.
I am not familiar on how to guide you to the thread I posted but it says" A newb from Los Angeles....I love this forum".
