Sooooo....does anyone know how common the 5-window cab is on a 2-ton or bigger truck? Have a line on one, thinking about moving the cab to a pickup. But if it is a rare combination, maybe not....

I have one.
I did not consider it any more or less rare than a 5 window cab on a 1/2 ton.

I have one also, but I have been in the trucking business 44 years and like big trucks as well as pickups. As far as worth, 1/2 tons are a lot easier to sell than 2 tons because only a few people want a big truck.

I was just talking with a neighbor about this and he said the cabs from the half tons are smaller than the 1.5 and 2 tons. I'm not familiar with the 1947-'54 series, (my range is '41 - '46), but I'm curious now as to whether or not there were different sized cabs.

Incorrect.
The cabs are the same from 1/2 ton up to about 3 ton for AD trucks (47-54)

Good to know. (That's how the '41 - '46 cabs are, too.)
