M35a2 cab replacement with M931A2

[Hainebd]

Will the M931A2 cab fit correctly on M35A2?

No the m939 series cabs are wider.

 

[gimpyrobb]

Nope.

Can it be used to crew cab a deuce cab.

 

[gimpyrobb]

Eh, I'd need lots of measurements before saying yes or no. Time to do some homework!

Not without a lot of modification. (Like sectioning a considerable amount down the middle)

Find a Deuce cab and buy it, by the time you attempt to modify a 939 series cab to have anything to do with a Deuce you will be WAY over what you would have paid for the correct cab in the first place!

Okay so these guys are mostly right, the 939 cab is wider but it has been done. Both as a single cab replacement and as a double cab added to a m35 cab. You will have to use the tilt front nose if you just replace the m35 cab with the 939 cab and fix the steps and battery box, but it can be done. As for double cab it should be really close to a perfect fit as both cabs have a taper from the front to the rear and the rear of the m35 cab is almost exactly the same width as the front of the 939 cab. So if you are up for a little work it can work.

Actually, it's a great candidate for a crew cab conversion. The 939 cabs are 10" wider than a deuce cab. Coincidentally, the back of a deuce cab is 10" wider than the front.
This equates to the fact that the front of the 939 cab is almost exactly the same width as the back of the M35A2 cab. By careful calculation of where you make your cuts, it's a perfect splice and you don't have to fool with stretching the front of the cab. Also gives you a wider area for the back seaters. It's a perfect match by the numbers, would love to see someone complete one this way.

Edit; sorry Jeff, kinda duplicated what you said!

Ok so two ways to do. I ask cause I can get this cab complete for $250. Little rust so I thought it might work. I will tape out the deuce take my money truck and trailer then tape out the M931 cab. If close I buy. My trouble is I will come home with more than the cab.

Thanks for the info
