Re: 78 chevy
Pretty much just the trans hump

Re: 78 chevy
I should elaborate, Its the floor area from the firewall back, in the center of the cab. The trans hump is lower, but the "lower-ness" continues back under the seat. In order to put a 2wd cab on a 4wd truck, you have to either run a body lift (i think a 2" will work) or cut out the floor section for transfer case clearance. I'll do some quick googling and you will see the differences. But other than that and the rear two cab mounts which are just different bushings, (and not having the wiring or light in the dash for the 4wd light) thats the only difference.
Here you go, the area in green is the area thats different.
