Default anyone got a guide or know how simple this is.

I got a 04 gmc sierra that is rolled over. Fortunately I got a 05 gmc sierra cab I could swap onto it. Anyone got a guide on how to just remove the cab itself without the front clip because I already got the fenders/hood/grill/bed removed from when I was going to start parting it out.

The cab just unbolts. Not sure if you can remove it without the sheet metal being off. haven't tried that way.

Just unplug the main harness, remove the brake master cylinder, disconnect steering shaft, unhook the Transmission cable and it should come right off.

Fenders bolt to the cab at the back... fenders have to come off, which is a whopping 6 bolts once you unbolt the bumper to access the two lower front fender bolts...good news is you can leave the bed on and the core support...

You are correct the master not the booster needs to come off.

The fenders and everything is already off so pretty much the the 6 bolts on the bottom, main harness, and transmission cable is all that should be left. The hydroboost unit I sold awhile back but luckily the new cab has the boost still intact with it.
