Thanks for the link, my search skills need improvement lol

By looking at that, some just show pics and dont say low or high. Can I assume if its a 4x4 auto 1/2ton its a high hump for the t-case and allways low hump for auto 2x4 1/2 ton?

If yours is a 4x4 you will have the high hump. I think the 2wd trucks with manual transmission also have the high hump. If you tell Chris what you have when you order, he will make sure you get what you need. I have the ACC carpet in my truck, and it's great. There is a little bit of trimming to get it to fit, but if you take your time it's easy to get it perfect.

If you aren't sure what you have send me a picture,  Nothing is guaranteed on the hump sizes.

Thanks, I will certainly do that.

I bought the 76 about 2 months ago, and the previous owner had replaced the carpet, however its all sloppy and loose around the hump. My guess is he bought a tall hump for a low hump truck...just a guess though.
