This is correct. A couple of years ago I put a 1989 cab onto a 1987 c30 commercial chassis. It was quite a project. The biggest issue is that the 73-87 style frame ramps up at the back of the cab by quite a bit. The floor of the original cab ramps up under the seat to accomidate this. Our cabs have a flat floor. When I built my cab mounts I used the higher mounts (rear of cab) as the baseline and rasied the rest of the cab mounts to that level. It makes the front of the cab have a significant body lift, which is not an issue if you want that, I guess.
