Carpet Question

Does anyone know if a 75-79 regular cab 2wd column shift C6 high tunnel carpet will fit in my 75 manual floor shift 4x4 f100?
Ive read different things, like as long as its a high tunnel it will work for a 4x4, but also read that the tunnels are different from a 2x4 vs 4x4.
I can get a decent deal on this one, if it will work.

Your correct, the floor tunnel covers are different between the 2 WD and 4 WD trucks.
2 WD drive trucks with a C6 transmission from what I also reserched were high tunnel, the C4 automatic transmission constitued low tunnel. So your question asking if a 2 WD C6 carpet will fit your 1975 4 WD drive, it should from my own research.

(FYI). Tried looking at your profile to determine where you're located, but it's not showing. Anyway, I have a Blue Loop carpet for 1973-1979 Ford Regular cab I'm selling cheap, it's in really good condition and the Loop carpet in my opinion hold up better then the Pile carpet. I took it out of my 1979 Ford F100 Regular cab, C4 low tunnel truck, becasue I'm changing the color scheme to Oxford White exterior and Dark Saddle Brown interior (Eddie Bauer). If you're interested send my private message. I'm located in Oxanrd, CA 93033.

E-mail I just received prompted me to share it: OC Auto Carpets <orders@ocautocarpets.com>
I called Orange County Auto Carpets (855) 622-8862 when I was researching for 1979 F100 carpet replacement, talked to one of their parts specialist who explained the low / high tunnel, loop and pile carpet. I'm very please with their advise / customer service and now recieve periodic advertisement E-mails from them.

Thanks for getting back to me EQCMCAT. I think it will fit but I don't want to waste time and $, especially if someone here can say with some certainty one way or another. On LMC website it lists this
"2 Wheel Drive Models with Floor Shift
All Models with C6 Automatic Transmission
and All 4 Wheel Drive Models (High Hump)
Standard Cab"
This further suggests it should fit. But when I look it up on other websites, it looks as if the 2 are different.


You are a bit aways from me friend. Im out in KY and am looking for either black or dark grey color. I appreciate the offer and you taking time to reply.
