This is good news. I bet the last few days PATRACY was under serious pressure and I am sure has not had a good nights sleep.
Thank you Patracy for your hard work, dedication and perseverance.
Jim,
The bends are double thick, 3/8" + the rear structure steel. I have cobalt bits and a good drill. I was beat at 10,lol There are also 4 point structure end nuts and bolts.
Lights out for me I have Parade Duty Tomorrow. Peace Out..!
I did it because its was bought from a SS member and adds strength to the cab, also keeps things square. Also you can finally mount things on the rear wall with out drilling to the outside.I am going to fill the 2"gap with Great Stuff expanding foam. That might help quiet the cab some.
Tomorrow after the parade I am installing FatMat/DynaMat on the floor/firewall/rear wall and insulating the cab roof. I found a roll of rubber perfect for the floor. 3/8" thick. I will go through some razer blades on that install.
I don't think its necessary. There are 2 tight hinges and 2 tight locking flap ends. Its square/level and IMHO strong. Not as overbuilt as the originals but I'm happy. I have our local Memorial Day Parade at noon. I will be up with the birds again finishing up the drivers seat. I looked at my...
Cab reinforcement plate
Also installed a cab reinforcement plate gotten off MKcorey here in the SS classifieds. I liked this project, I am going to add a few more rivets, which are unnecessary IMHO. Installed an inverter 1000w/2000w-30 second spike, 12v-120ac. Its nice to use a drill and not...

Replaced them with a ammo can base and Hemtt buckets.

Hey Jim, it takes 4-5 minutes per hole. I hit the plate with my fist all over and there was no noise makers. I have to install a drivers seat tomorrow morning and will add a few more.
I have a feeling the way it fits there should be no new squeaks the plate is tight.
Replaced Front springer seats, Installed HEMTT buckets on a custom base.
I found myself up with the birds today and decided to install the Cab reinforcement plate and the long put off bucket seat project.
I don't know if this has ever been done before but I came up with an excellent base to...
Cab Reinforcement Plate Installation M109/M35s
I got an early start on my day and found myself removing the 2 front seats around 9:00am. I picked up this reinforcement plate from MKcoen, in the SS classifieds. The unit came packaged with 96 industrial rivets, 6 nut and bolts sets and a few...
Ios-24-l
Dell, Its a IS-24-L unit. The solar panel is green. The red light on the charge controler/desulfater does not light up. Im getting 57v so its working. Just putting it out there. its real dim.
I guess its time to break out that grill. Tim, this weekend I'm using the large grill for salmon. I have only used your smaller unit to this point. Will post pictures of the successful BBQ.
