The floor is flat on the medium duty truck cabs. It would have to be cut out and have a pickup floor installed.

i'm thinking the easiest way is to take your window out, cut out the panel from a med duty cab and weld into your cab.  This would be great in the summer time.

If you are going to mod the rear window I would make it a roll down unit.

I think it would be cooler as a safari window that the bottom pops open.  That way even if it rains, water doesn't get in.

I believe it was Thom Taylor that did a rendering f one several years ago. It was published in one of the mags, maybe Truckin. I can tell you it doesn't look right at all on these trucks.

A buddy of mine was junking a c60 and I had him cut out the back window section for possible future use in a C/K truck. I still have it.
