Any help would be greatly appreciated. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | "conversion kit'?  GM made one - find a cab that has a big window, cut it at the belt line, cut your small window the same, transpose the 2 tops  sorry, couldn't resist - if you could look at both cabs at the same time you can see that what would be needed for a conversion "kit" would be 2 cabs, a well equipped body shop, and an excellent bodyman - the glass is available from an auto glass shop Bill | | | | | Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 96 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 96 | ricos rods and relics has one, but it's not out yetbut maybe in a couple of months. www.ricos-rods-and-relics.com | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 88 Member | | Member Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 88 | Thanks, now I have another question. Where can I get some money? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | Brent like this small window? - no doubt made by Dynacorn - even tougher than nipping the top off an original cab IMO - remember that there's an 'inner' body as well as that outer shell, and that needs the larger opening too, and those 2 panels are pinch welded - on top of the 500$ patch cost, you'd be looking at at least a thou to install it you'd be best off to find a decent big window cab Highschooler, and just switch cabs - even trade the small window for it, as many folks would rather have that! 90% of the TF cabs ya see are small window tho, so it won't be too easy to find a loose big window cab Bill | | |
