Re: ok i have a stupid qustion
On the 70-up cabs there was a hole on the LH front doorpost for the sensor for the emission switch on the engine and, depending on whether or not it was a late production '71 cab, the shoulder harness hole may be about three inches forward of where it is on the older trucks.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~
