the mounts are different -the 49 has a single mount center rear and the 53
has mounts outboard of the frame
mainly they were removed when the gas tank came inside as there was no
access to the center mount
I fashioned new mounts on the 47 cab using the 53 shackles
bill 53-3600 hot rod

Subject: Re: +AFs-oletrucks+AF0- 53 cab vs 49 Cab
+AD4-The '49 cab has a drivers side vent much like the top cowl vent - '53 does
+AD4-not. Of course the '49 doors have no wing windows - the '53 does. I'm not
+AD4-sure about the mounts, otherwise they are the same.
