Work with a guy that wants to know if there are any differences on 1/2ton, 3/4ton, and 1ton cabs? Told him that you guys would have the answers...

Thanks!!

Not that I'm aware of. All the differences are during the model years.

To name a few:
67 Small back window, big back window option.
67-68 E-brake under steering wheel and wiring harness junction block 67-68 only
71 had rear view mirrow raised pad above wind shield.

Same cabs.

10-30 Chevy/1500-3500 GMC cabs are all the same

Did all C30 cabs have clearance lamps on the roof? I know you could get them on the lighter trucks it was a big thing to have them around here. Also what about high humps? All of the C30's I seen had the high hump but then again so did the big block trucks and the 4X4's. My C2500 has a high hump but it was a big block truck from the factory. With the option exception the cabs will all be the same just as swapping from say a 1/2 ton to another 1/2 ton there very well could be option differences.

Now just to throw an odd ball into the mix, my 1969 C10 was a 307 3spd 2wd and it has a high hump cab, and really no real reason for it. The truck was built in Janesville.

A C/30 with a TH350 had a low-hump. All 69-72 dual rear wheel C/30s had clearance lamps, as required by ICC. Single rear were an option just as on anything else
