There are a lot of write-ups on people doing this. Have you searched the archives?

Do you have a shop to do the work in? Moving cabs and shortening beds is a lot of heavy work, but you are starting with a good looking 923a2.

What kind of time, equipment and fabrication skills do you have? Maybe Dave @country has a maxxpro hood laying around. Make your own armored crew cab or check the junkyards for a 4 door IH cabor maybe a combination

[ like these ideas love the idea of combining the two but my truck isnt the long bed so wheel base....

Any updates on your crew cab project? I'm working on my own deuce crew cab project. Love to see other's ideas and inspirations.

Nchittendon, have you considered using an m939 series cab behind the deuce? The taper front to back would seem to match up.
