Crew Cab Corners?

Does anyone know if Crew Cab Corners are the same as regular cabs?

I am starting work on my other cab and all it needs are cab corners, and some repair on the area between the doors.

I used standard cab corners on my Crew Cab when I did it. They are the same.

Between doors

How are you going about fixing the metal between the doors?
My 78 crew is missing the metal there..
Could we use a patch panel to a lower door skin there?

No they are not the same....they are different lengths.

If your problem is just the actual corner than you can get away with using regular corners, but if (like in my case) the entire bottom of the panel was gone. You will need to purchase an extended cab corner to go all the way to the door jam.

I made my own patch panel for between the doors. I only had to replace about 3" up, so it was not bad.

As for corners, my crew cab (1976) used standard cab corners. You could see in the construction of the truck that the cab was simply a standard cab that had been stretched. The cab corner wrapped into the door jamb fine. I had the XLT trim and the corner pcs I used came from a standard cab and fit fine. Your truck may have been constructed differently, but that is the way mine was.

Sethsdad, are you referring to crew cab (4 door) or supercab (2 door with a back seat)? I could understand how a supercab would have more metal forward of the corner. But it seems that a crew cab should have a smililar corner size to a regualr cab.

That is what I suspect, thanks for your reply.
I will assume bhawkin2 got crew and extended cabs mixed up.
