Subject: Cab & Front Clip swap
IP: Logged

Message:
This will be my second attempt at getting a reply to my post, maybe this subject is too technical for the majority of forum readers.

I have a 94 CC that is totaled but the frame is straight I recently rebuilt the front suspension with Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings and the 5.2 is in great shape... I aquired a 96 CC that has major undercarriage rust, but body is rust free. I want to swap the cab, bed, and front clip from the 96 to the 94 frame and running gear. Any help/guidence would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
I can only relate to you what I know....we recently put a 1996 regular cab on a 1989 frame. We re-used the 89 doors on the later cab, and used the 89 front clip and radiator support. The wiring harness is the same, too. I think you will find EVERYTHING to be the same in your case as you are only changing by a couple of years.
We also upgraded the motor to a 1996 5.9, using all factory parts. Had to add a electric fan in front of the radiator, but it stays at 180 degrees on hot Florida days!
Good Luck!
