Hello I have a 52 3100 and was wanting to see if anyone has changed out the dash on one of these. I really like the dash in the 55-59 models. Pictures would be great thanks

I think this will require some serious measurement work to confirm fit, anything is possible I guess. I have never seen this switch made so I don’t think there are many pictures. I have scrapped a lot of these trucks for parts and the dash removal itself is difficult. The spot welds cannot be reached to drill them, you end up using a junkyard cut and then grinding to final fit. Good luck!

If you can just cut away what you need, to allow the 55-59 section of the dash to fit without getting into the pinchweld at the windshield, it might be doable.
