Hey there. I did a cab swap on a 76. I took the old cab off piece by peice,, got smart.. took the new cabed truck out to the hoist lifted on all 4 corners as far out as i could get. removed all 6 bolts and lifted straight up. rolled old truck out and new one under set down and bolted back up.. really easy.
