Using 4x4 cab on 2 wheeler
Was wondering if there are any other differences in the cabs besides the raised tranny hump and hole in the tranny tunnel?
I do have one thing I will have to deal with.......

Re: Using 4x4 cab on 2 wheeler
Yep, the cab will bolt right up. As far as the lights go, it all depends on how you set the truck up.

Re: Using 4x4 cab on 2 wheeler
It's not a truck unless it has roof lights. I think all trucks should have roof lights. Just me though.

Re: Using 4x4 cab on 2 wheeler
I think a slammed shortbed 73-80 would look awesome with those lights.

Re: Using 4x4 cab on 2 wheeler
I found this thread in a search because I've been wondering about cab differences between 4x4 and 2 wheel drive. I think I read here that there is no difference. Is that correct?
Because I need to replace a cab or two on my trucks (I've got a dually 2wd and a 4x4) and want to make sure I source a replacement cab that can work. Can anyone explain any differences that did exist between cabs on '73-'87 trucks (whether it was specific to 4wd or otherwise). Thanks! Clem

Re: Using 4x4 cab on 2 wheeler
If you can't find one with a high hump reuse the one from your donor truck.

Re: Using 4x4 cab on 2 wheeler
Cool...so you're saying 4x4 had high-tunnel and 2wd had low tunnel? (My trucks aren't in the same place, so I can compare at the moment). Is the tunnel bolt in or is it a cut-n-weld operation? (personally, my plan is to find a cab to restore while driving the truck...then swap it later).
Thanks, Clem
