Re: 61 ford 8500 mile cab
I am not sure by the cab number if its the stock cab.. However I THINK as long as the area down by your feet is not different, with the metal around the kick panels lower plenum changed for the huge tires of the big trucks. it should work.. Be interesting to see what others say.
Re: 61 ford 8500 mile cab
I think I read they use a different mounting system on them than the pickups do. I believe Brian posted on this a while back but I couldn't find it. I know we talked about it in chat the other night.

Re: 61 ford 8500 mile cab
f600 {conventional cab) 61-66 same as
61-64 all f100,250,350,500 etc
65-66 f350 and f100-250 4x4
65 f100 4x4
will bolt on your frame
need your original steering column bracket if you have 100-250 2wd as f 600 has skinny column tube with matching bracket
some different cabs that are not the same are N and T series
these are spotted easily because of the odd door shape and or full cab crossmember up front
the T will actually bolt on like above (its considered a conventional cab) but the flat floor and x member make it a project of sorts depending on engine trans clearance.
FWIW

Re: 61 ford 8500 mile cab
I believe the battery box is in the floor on the F600, as well as 350s and up,and 4x4s. '64 and up wil likely have the higher roofline.

Re: 61 ford 8500 mile cab
yes the battery hole will be in the floor
good place for a cooler if you dont need a battery there

Re: 61 ford 8500 mile cab
I have some pictures of the cab but they are incased in an email I received and I cannot copy a picture out of the email to another format or device. I am sure someone can but I can't. so many projects and so little time. which ones are worthwhile and which one's are not. it all depends on how old you are and how many you got left in U. questions. questions. questions.
