Mounting a 66 c20 cab to 71 c10 frame question
I have a 66 c20 cab I want to mount to a 71 c10 frame and I don't know what kit from LMC to order. Do I order the 66 truck kit because of the cab? Or do I order the 71 kit because of the frame? Has anyone done this, if so what did you do? I don't want to order both and return the other to LMC but if I have to then I have to. I found out that you just can't mount a 66 core support the a 71 frame because the 71 frame nose dips down 3.75" from the top of the frame and the 66 dips 2.5" so before I make a mistake and build my fan shroud incorrectly I guess I better mock up the rusty cab on my powder coated frame first eventhough I'm not ready, thus my question. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

You're going to have to change the rear cab mount bracket on the frame. The '67-'72 bracket is a little different than the '63-'66. I think if you change the radiator support bracket, that will help with that part. The front bumper frame horns are different on the '67-'72's as well.

Body mounts follow the body, you will have to move the rear body mount....that is it. My 65 core support bolted right onto a 69 4x4 frame.
