When you see the single low mounted headlights on a H/J model, it means that the truck is a '71 or later 'high-cab' version of the 9500. The cab was raised about 6" to clear the Detroit 8V-71 or Cummins NTC. Hood was taller to match the cab and give room for a larger radiator. GMC H/J trucks with gas, 6V-53, 6-71, Toroflow, Cat, and non-turbo Cummins kept the lower cab and hood with 4 headlights.
