Switching a 4spd cab for an auto cab

[yunosaysoda]

I am making one truck from two separate trucks and the shortbed chassis that im using is a 4 speed but the cab im putting in it was an auto chassis is 77 cab is 75 i noticed in the 77 cab the clutch spring was attached to a welded piece in the pedal bracket my question is, the auto cab does not have this so what can i do?

Swap the bracket assembly (with pedals) between the cabs. It's not a horrible job, drop the column and it'll come out complete. If the instrument cluster is out it gets easier because you can see much better.

Nope, the firewall end has studs that go into the engine compartment to mount the brake booster. I've done this swap on my old '80 and my current '91 K5.

I've done this too, the pedal bracket assembly will unbolt and come out.
