MAN!!!!!
Harry,
You needed to add the wooden shim because the chains were hitting or the cab was shoving the fenders down more into the tires? Where's Art when you need him??
Art,
IF you did your cab yourself, did you have it in pieces and assembled it on the tractor piece by piece or you just set it on it completely assembled? Did you find it hard to line things up to make it sit square on the tractor so the doors closed right and the front window pivot freely?
Here are a couple more pics of what I have so far:
The two bolts that hold the fenders to the frame are pretty much between the slotted holes and the two round holes, so would need to drill cab out to use same holes into the frame. This is the part I think would be best to put the wooden wedge into so it sits on the wedge instead of fender pan. This way I could tighten the wedge into the fender surface between wheels flat and tight??
None of the 4 bolts in the floor boards from the cab line up, so new ones need to be drilled.
You can also sort of see how the cab doesn't sit on the fenders themselves, only in the center over the frame. I didn't get any "fenders" with my cab so I have to manufacture them.
