Default 85 F350

Dont know if this is quite the right section for this question but i figure i'll give it a shot.
I have an 85 F350 with a 6.9 IDI (Soon to be 12valve cummins) and my cab is just horrible. I need a new one. Does anybody know what year range the cabs fit with cab mounts and fenders and everything?
Thanks

since u are doing an engine swamp, wiring harness wont matter then. cabs from 1980 till 1997 will work. small differences, but will bolt on.

It will all swap, there is only one mounting point that changed on the fenders and you can fix that with a simple "L" bracket.
