The cab dolly works good. Only thing I would recommend is not make it as tall. Mine is awkward for working inside the cab since it is so high. BTW I stink with wood, so it is not the fanciest thing I wanted the cab about 2 feet off the ground but I mismeasured. I used the rear of the cab for my measurements and didn't realize (at the time) the rear cab mounts are around 5-6" higher than the front. Plus the wheels I used added 7 ". I would recommend make the box only 12" high, then the rest should balance out to be OK.
