Cab swapping.

[Travis H]

I am new to this forum. Recently acquired an 84 short bed two wheel drive C10 that a tree fell on I would like to know some information on what cabs I can use other than the exact same one.

You best bet is a 1981 through 1989... 2 wheel drive. 4x4 trucks have a high hump in the floor due to the transfer case. They will fit however not quite correct. Unless you planing on making her a 4x4. Others will probably have more info then me but this is what it think is the most accurate info for ya.

Yep...81 to 87. 4x4 or 2WD. The hump can be changed.

Be careful when welding on the 84-up cab floors as I believe 84 was the first year of galvanizing on the floors.

Don't talk about the swap a bunch either. DOT/DMV will want to inspect it & will definitely be hateful about tampering with the VIN. Felony charges could result... Find a good 81-87 2wd donor & close the garage doors until complete would be my advice.
