cab swap transmission question

Post by madtom »

I'm going to make an offer soon on a new cab. As much as I hate to scrap mine, it's beyond what I'm capable of repairing.
My truck has a 4 speed and the cab I'm looking at has an auto trans, I know I can cut the hump out for the gear shift, but is it any problem to
mount the clutch pedal and linkage in the new cab? Thanks for any advice.

No problem at all. The whole pedal assembly just bolts in. Might have to cut a hole in the floor for the clutch linkage. If you have the removable high hump cover in your old truck, you probably will have to swap that in too.

There is a cover plate in floor for clutch linkage. Remove two screws and put boot in.
