41 cab is about 2 inches longer than a 40 cab. Dashes, doors, windshields, interior tin, and rocker panels will all interchange.

What specifically are you looking for?

Door patch panels will be the same, get them from wheelwright you won't be disappointed. He has them on e-bay off and on but he's a bolter so you send him a PM.

The rear window is going to be difficult but there is no difference there.

The extra length is in the floor. You'll find that the floor pan will not interchange.

Don't know about that one. I believe the hoods are different but I've never tried to put one of my 40s on a 46.
