will a 85 cab bolt up to 74 frontclip?
Its been a long time since I have messed with this style of trucks mainly 64-66 person but I got a 87 cab gonna give to my uncle and he has a 74 front clip that is a couple of years old truck was wrecked and he got redone for free but his cab is rusty and I got a rust free cab. So my main question is will it bolt right up with out a problem?

What you refer to as a front clip is what he is calling a dog house.
Never understood it myself but I have heard it several times. Frank Posted via Mobile Device

Pretty sure the core support is different or at least the location of the bolt holes.

I did a 84 cab on 76 chassis with 76 front clip. I actually used a 79 core support. It fits

You have to change the windshield wiper transmission.
