Cab Floor Hump - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Is there a way to determine if you have a high or low hump?

NPilot1975 · 02-28-2005, 11:25 AM

If the floor is almost flat in the middle, you have a low hump.

*Randy70C-10* · 02-28-2005, 11:25 AM

High hump is removeable (bolts on)...low hump is not.

1971ChevyTruck · 02-28-2005, 12:31 PM

How hard is it to convert to a high hump???

*Randy70C-10* · 02-28-2005, 02:51 PM

It would be easy for me to do, it all depends on your skill level. (the reason I say this is because I've met people that can't gap a spark plug)

If you can cut and weld metal then it would be a piece of cake.

Not trying to hijack here but....Would a '72 3/4 ton 2wd with a 402/T400 combo have a low hump or high? What had 'em and what didn't?

*Randy70C-10* · 02-28-2005, 03:22 PM

That should have been a high hump, I'm pretty sure that all big block trucks had high humps.

avejoe · 02-28-2005, 03:42 PM

No need to weld if going from low to high hump.

70short · 02-28-2005, 04:14 PM

Even though all factory big block auto trucks were high hump, it will fit under a low hump too.

When I converted my 70 from 6 cylinder 3 speed to 454, turbo 400, it all fit under the low hump without problems. Initially, it was snug in some areas, but when I replaced the old original cab mounts with new ones, it raised the cab near and inch, then it all cleared by a mile.
