Re: Will a 1/2ton cab fit a 3/4ton chassis
Welcome.
Cab will fit no problem. The biggest difference from your 1980 frame and your 1976 cab is the hood hinges and front frame horns. All that can be overcome with no issues.

Re: Will a 1/2ton cab fit a 3/4ton chassis
Thanks guys,
Another stupid question, why is there more parts in the 3/4t kit? I thought it was because there were more bolts? Is there more clearance between the cab and frame? |
