You probably don't HAVE to, but it likely saves total repair time. Cab coming off isn't all that huge of a deal anymore.


I don’t know anything about this, but you’d really have to explain how this could be true.

Besides the body, what about the linkages to the steering, fuel, brakes, a/c system, etc etc. Is everything simply plug-n-play electronics now?

i bought a cheap ODB2 reader to check out my 2015 4runner and when i did a diagnostics check i lost count at 34 different ECUs it was checking

an EMT hits and those country boys driving 1980s trucks are going to be laughing their asses off at us.

Mostly. There are some mechanical interfaces like you noted but they are not major, and its easier to unhook those and rip the cab off than it is to remove and replace parts that are up against the firewall and stuff.

I dont work in that industry but I've been told you can rip a cab off of some new trucks in as little as 2 hours and reinstall in 4.
