Yeah I know that. I have parted a few cars where I have sold off a full wiring harness. So I know to take my time and feed things back threw. Same with building a race car and having to remove and reinstall wiring harnesses.

Also for clips. I have learned pretty well how to take cars apart. I have parted a few cars out here in the driveway. Sometimes things break. But others you can be good enough to get them to come apart. Good news loads of trucks here in the pick and pull that are the 99-06 body style.

Good to know that get later stuff. So 03+ if I buy this truck. Seems reading cab mounts changed some as well as the hardware. So whatever the donor cabs make sure to take its pieces. I guess the biggest thing comes down to it. Are the 1500 and 2500/3500 cabs the same. Looks like they are. But just wanting to know.

Hey guys I am currently truck shopping and have found what could be a good deal on a 03 GMC 2500hd. Its an extended cab long bed truck. Anyways this one took a tree to the cab. I am not afraid of doing a cab swap. It would be my first one but I do all my own car work. I know I would need to swap the dashboard wiring harness over to the new cab to keep everything happy. Things like the cluster, steering column would be swapped as well to keep the original key happy. Ecu etc would be moved. Pretty much if its electronic swap it. Now my question is can I use any 99-06/07classic cab. I know it would have to be an extended cab. There are loads of 1500 trucks being parted. They are rust free southern trucks. I will need everything including the four doors and the cab. The hood,fenders, headlight and grill are fine. Bed also looks fine as well. Might need some odds and ends as well from the donor cab. Can I use a 1500 cab or does it have to be from a 2500. Still have not bought the truck yet. Just getting an idea incase I would need to find a 2500 donor cab. The current truck is a GMC. Pretty sure that a Chevy cab would work. I have watched a few guys do this on Dodge and some older Ford trucks. Usually a 1500 body onto a 2500 frame.
