Thanks man! Appreciate that🤙🏻

[@ianhowell4803]

Thanks for posting this! What an excellent idea using the engine hoist. 🤙🏻

[@pabst100]

what great about everything that you do so easier is when you have a garage or a roof above you and all your tools you need to do your work, last but not left out is your partner to help you out

[@josechavez656]

Good thing you posted this video. I have to replace a crewcab and this is the method I will be using thank you.

[@Brochachichoppers]

Make sure you have an extra set of hands, those crewcabs are huge. Good luck man!

[@Rider-lh2gz]

Thanks for the idea on how to remove the cab

[@robertmahaney4271]

Great video, Did you use the same vin or did you have to go through all the retitling BS. ? I enjoyed the music as well! Thank you

[@Brochachichoppers]

Had to go with retitling unfortunately. The DMV here in the Netherlands is unforgiving… The music is from a local band here in the Netherlands called Desert Colossus. They’re on spotify and whatnot. Be sure to check them out!

[@clydeusa6596]

I would love to see more detail on disassembly of cab but otherwise good vid.

[@Brochachichoppers]

Thanks for watching! There really isn't much more to it than shown here, its steering coupler, wire loom, brake lines and 4 cab bolts. If you have any questions about taking your cab off, we're here to help!

[@ianhowell4803]

Same principle for a K20 cab swap? I have a 78 Chevy single cab longbed with the 454 7.4L

[@Brochachichoppers]

Yeah, the single cabs on k10,20 or 30 are identical. So same principle!

[@teabag402]

Where was the cab rusted? I saw some surface rust around the back but nothing much. Where was it bad?

[@Brochachichoppers]

Floors, A-pillars, around windscreen, cab corners and rockers

[@teabag402]

@@Brochachichoppers ah yea, I have an 84 Florida truck and its got the same rust areas. Sucks, they dont even make patch panels for the a pillars around the windshield. I had to make mine out of fiberglass. I should have just removed the cab but wasnt sure about wiring differences between my diesel vs a gas truck

[@Brochachichoppers]

This is a florida truck as well. '79 though. Imported to the Nerherlands. Should've known better than buying from salty FL... i was planning on fixing it but got a chance to buy a clean california cab for the right price. As for your diesel/gas issue. You could've swapped the entire harness to the new cab. That's what I'm doing with this new late 80's cab.

[@teabag402]

@@Brochachichoppers should have went that route but to late now lol. Are you going to post any update videos? Awesome content and filming.

[@Brochachichoppers]

Thanks! We'll definitely be uploading more vids soon. Just haven't gotten to it lately. Somehow my dayjob is interfering with working on my truck lol

[@shawnlawrence4840]

What's the cost for that cab

[@Brochachichoppers]

Unfortunately the cab is already scrapped

[@shawnlawrence4840]

@@Brochachichoppers was asking what price I could get one of those cab for

[@Brochachichoppers]

That depends on where you are located. You can find rust free cabs for $300/400 around the westcoast of U.S. but here in the Netherlands they go for $1000/1750
