Replacement truck cab...

Hi all! Well, some of you know I rolled my 4x4 pickup a few weeks ago. And I kept saying I was gonna fix it.

Well, look at what I went out and bought today!







It'll be a lot of work... but it'll be worth it. The cab is from a 2WD automatic tranny truck and mine is the opposite of both. Think it'll work? A lttle cutting... a little drilling... I'm keeping my head up! Oh yeah, scored it for 80 bucks!!! Had to tear it apart myself though... and carry it through the ayrd with 2 other guys.

I think it's going to be a challenge. Don't forget about doing the Clutch for the 5 SPD. You may want to make a template out of your rolled truck for the shifter opening.

Good Luck either way!

IMO for the price you paid, the work that you put into will be worth...Then you have got a heck of a thread of the rebuild...Have fun!
