Patch panel Q: 69-72 vs 67-68 Ebrake mount - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am having to use a '68 cab to replace my '69. Of course, the ebrakes are different. So, I'm wondering if there's a patch panel for the earlier cab that will bring it up to spec for the later cabs. Yeah, I know...find a donor cab. However, I just thought I'd ask.

None that I ever heard of. Too bad your not going the other way, I'd have just piece you need.

Just posting this for future reference sake, here's a pic of the 2 side by side. The left is the 69-72 and the right is the 67/68.

Is your cab that bad that you can't resource it from there? Otherwise I'd hop on the parts side of the board and see if you can get one there.
