I am starting my cab conversion on my 1982 sc. Anyone who has done one, or knows the procedures, if you could please help with any technical info you may have. I appreciate it.

Ask all the questions you need to. The most important thing is to get your measurements right there is adjustment in these roofs but not alot.

Thats true but what you need to do is contact someone like Okla. For. or watch the classifieds here and get a complete roof with all the brackets and trim. I got mine from OKF and they supplied everything. Prep and cutting the correct spots are critical would also suggest something like a soda blaster to clean up inside the wheelwells after welding to get good corrosion protection. Good luck
