My crew cab swap pics

FIgured I'd post this here as well, just to be a pic who**....No build pics, just the finished product... It on a reg cab frame. The cab is a 95 psd cab, i painted it myself using the factory paint coded paint color, it didnt turn out perfect but im just happy that it is one color.
The only other crew cab on a reg cab frame that I have seen is another guy on fsb (kinda gave me the idea):thumbup
Onto the pics

I think it's pretty awesome.

Where-abouts are you in Illinois? I see your old cab is the same color as my truck, lol.

I am still amazed every time i see this truck. Most guys don't have the ambition to just replace a cab, no less take a reg cab long bed and make it into a supercab "short bed" then pull it apart again and make it a crew cab"shorty bed". I like it

While I'm not a fan of uber short beds, it is a dang fine looking truck.

You will need to run a 2in body lift so that the cab clears where the frame humps up. here is a pic of my truck when it was an ext cab super shorty
