cab swap time

ive finally found a good cab for a swap .my truck is a 1988 f350 4x4 6.9 t-19 4sp.8'box . The cab i found is a 1990 4x4 f250 automatic 6.9 truck cab. What im wondering about is swaping brake clutch pedal assembly into the 1990 automatic cab. can i do this without removing the colum or do i need to open the colum and dash up to swap it.clean cabs are few and far between here in northern ny so for $400. i think its a good buy .full cab all glass good, interior good ,exterior firewall items such as air boxes ,master cyl and booster are on it wires were unpluged at bulkhead connector when removed from frame.

You do have to loosen the lower (underdash) column bolts to swap the pedal assembly, but don't think it's any harder than that.

You might as well swap the whole column though, since you won't be needed the column shifter anymore.


Unless the auto column is in better shape, you can take it part, and just swap out the shifter sleeve for your standard one.


Someone with experience on that part should chime in sooner or later.


400$ is a good deal for a clean cab!
