62 vs 63 cab

I know the frames are different but do they mount the same?

Re: 62 vs 63 cab

1963 front cab mount is inset into the Z bar reinforcement supporting the cab floor. 1962 mounts on the plateau in the middle of the cab mount. Don't forget the 62 has a hydraulic clutch additional hole in the cowl while the 63 cab has the single brake mount with a mechanical clutch rod going through the angle section of the cowl.

Re: 62 vs 63 cab

So then how hard is it to get a 62 cab to work on a 63 frame. The clutch hole is irrelevant as I will have an auto in it.
