Welcome to FTE!
Glow plugs & other diesel specific electrical parts have their own harnesses under the hood & under the dash. You'll need to swap them out of your old cab into the "new" one.

Sounds like you're going to need wiring diagrams to sort through the mess.
Maybe Franklin2 can help you out.
