Question for the group.
If I were to buy a properly titled half ton truck with a good frame and drivetrain, but the cab is not salvageable, and I buy a 1 1/2 ton farm truck with a nearly perfect cab which also has a good title, can I legally put the great farm truck cab on the half ton frame and register the truck as a 1 1/2 ton truck so that the ID plate remains unmolested? If one were to do this, would they run amuck with the law or the opinion of those worried about the law since it is not a 1 1/2 ton anymore? I am not asking for a friend. I am not asking for myself. I am asking because I grow frustrated with the fact that good cabs are getting harder to find and there seems to be way too many folks and government entities worried about the virtually nonexistent underworld theft of glorified tractors which allows one to stay dry while driving in the rain on the farm.
