Need a little help
Does anyone know if the measurement between these two mounts are the same on all the 64-66 trucks? The red cab is a 66 and the other a 64 but the distance in different from one cab to the other and I am not sure it should be. Need to figure it out before I try to use the 66 cab as a replacement for the 64.
Thanks all, Jay |

Re: Need a little help
If you're finding a difference, that's really, really unusual. There shouldn't be any.

Re: Need a little help
The '64-'66 C10,20 & 30 cabs are identical. And as far as the inner fender mounts, the '60-'63's are the same dimension in that respect

Re: Need a little help
Thanks guys, I will get out there and measure it again. I don't remember the numbers now but they were about an inch or so off if I recall. I know the '66 had front end damage but can't/couldn't see any damage to the cab at all.

Re: Need a little help
So I finally got out there and sure enough they are right at an inch different.
Not sure why the pics are sideways, sorry about that. |

Re: Need a little help
Can you take pictures looking straight on at the firewall? Being able to see both from this view may help see what is going on.

Re: Need a little help
Looks like they have both been moved around some over the years or its just the difference between 2 assembly plants. I would not have a problem with proceeding on. It is just the support for the lower corner of the inner fender and if it needs a tweek during assembly a wack with a rubber mallet will make the adjustment.

Re: Need a little help
Did both cabs come off a pickup? Or did one come off a pickup and the other off a C60 or larger truck? Usually the floor and trans cover is a giveaway . Trying to look at the weathering of the inner fenders to see if it is the same width as big trucks also took a different inner fender. Too hard to tell in the photo
