Instructions on remove truck cab?

I found out how to remove the bed (easy)

Removing the cab is going to be harder I would have to assume. Has anyone ever done it?

Looking for a step by step instruction guide.

My truck has rust starting to form on the frame/suspension/axles,etc.

I am going to stop this at all costs.

Thanks for your help.

I have done several, have one in shop right now with the cab off. 2008 with 6.7 has cracked block in same place that 53 blocks have been cracking. Do you have access to a lift? There's not much to it, wiring harness, brake cable, trans shift cable, brake lines, cooling fan, body bolts, ground cables, then lift the body off. I'll take some pictures tomorrow and post them here.

I went online to Chrysler but they didn't have the procedure for removing Cab. Just a few pictures of parts that need to be disconnected.

Hey bud, did you ever post any pics of the process of removing that cab? I’m about to pull mine and any advice would be greatly appreciated!
