Are these cabs pretty much the same from '72-93?

I traded for a '92 D350 with a Cummins. I'd like to restore it..kinda

Yes, restore a '92

This is a cool thread. Did you just swap the dash for a different colored one?

I'm thinking about swapping mine out. Don't want it all cracked up.



sorta all the same,but lots of small changes over the yrs.I work with mid 80s trucks myself nowdays.

so 82-93 cabs. the 87-93 have the firewall hole for hydro clutch which is why I went with a 91 cab,and the auto floor pan has the changes made so it can run a manual trans with out being the large wide 4x4 trans tunnel. as far as I can tell that is...but I have a cut wheel and welder to make it so if not.

the steering colum mount has 4 predrilled holes for the hydro clutch MC mounting bracket that is need along with the large hole in firewall.

door striker post change in late 70s-early 80s, cab has a more ronded rear edge on the 70s cab, body lines changed in 82

the core supports change a couple times for headlight/grill changes also 82-85 86-89 90-93 IIRC

so there are some difference when mixing the parts, you just need to pick the right parts..

I used the 85 dash that was a tan color,I scuffed it, then spray primer,then a base coat with a clear coat of crysler champage.
