Shultzie-
It's a shame this forum doesn't have a "manuals" section where you could click on two different Delux Cab manuals that would show the cab only on a wideframe tractor.

Hey, Aytay! I'm way too lazy to do that!

Morning.

I think I'll ask to borrow my friends 122 to see if it will fit. I already have a windbreaker on my 123 and it would be easier to try it on his because if it doesn't work I would have to put the windbreaker back on my 123.
Thanks for the input!

Hey, Shultzie - is that what's called "sleeping on a problem"?

Thanks to Shultzie posting I did figure out I have a deluxe cab, minus all the soft panels... I got it incomplete off the tractor, so I wasn't sure what I had. It was on a 1650 , so I'll be browsing those manuals for sure. Looks like I'll end up finding a good upholstery shop.

I have a question of what you guys think. One of my 1450's will be just for the tiller. I was thinking of putting the cab on it and have it for snow throwing duty as well. See any problems with it setup this way_?

That's a good cheap way to get rear weight for throwing, but you'll have to chain the tiller up in the winter and disconnect the lift bar, or you'll be raising an lowering the tiller at the same time as the thrower.

I was thinking about that. Wasn't sure about chaining it up though. I didn't know if anyone else had, and any problems. Thanks Charlie!

I won't be leaving the thrower on for tilling...

Deluxe cab fits fine on a 127. Back under cab(I store it hanging from ceiling)drop it down,8 bolts-done. 5 min.job*

*After tractor is under cab.Haven't used the cab the last 14-15 years because getting to it is a pain....

Jim C.,
Thanks.
Yeah, but the 123 doesn't have the fender pan like the 127. So that's why I'm asking. I'm really concerned about the hood opening with the cab on.
Thanks again!
