Cab width pinch weld to pinch weld? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone have the width of a 67-72 truck cab from the rocker pinch weld to rocker pinch weld? I found that the cab is 6' 6" wide, so assuming the width would be around 5' 10" or so???? Any help would be appreciated!

If your cab is on the frame....measure from the pinch weld, to the outside of the rail(both sides)....take those figures, & add 34" for the width of the rails. That should get you within a fraction of an inch

I was at work when I posted it. Measured it this weekend and believe it was 6' on the dot. Read another post that said the cab was 6' 6" and the rocker measured 2.75" - 3".
