    just a f.y.i.

    the 73-74 cab is different then the 75-78 trucks. in 75 toyota added about 2" of length to the b pillar. the beds are different too. the length is the same but the wheel well location changed due to the front of the bed bed being shortened about 2" and they added it to the back.

    Hey thanks burnzya, getting back up to speed with these.

    I have my old 1978 crew cab dually back. Previous owner let it sit outside for 7 years and has taken it toll on it. Minus the original bed but bought a 1976 rust free bed and have not installed but sounds like that's the right bed year for it. Going to replace the fenders,hood,lower front valance with new. Major rust damage located behind grille where engine compartment bolts to frame between where the radiator sits. Totally rusted through and not connected. Floors had partial replacement and rockers. Trans tunnel has small rust through. Thought probably easier to find a clean substitute.

    Would like to hear from anyone that has had experience in repairing the front lower core area.

    I have a 77 that I would sell the whole truck. The bed is not in good shape or the fenders but the rest I believe is in good sharp
