Re: Cab swap, how much work?

Quote:
have a garage that has the beams visable take a couple come-a-longs and strap it around the pillars. use seat belt material it wount ruin the cab and is strong enought to pull a house down
I wouldn't trust my roof to hold the cab, the passenger A-pillar is iffy. I only have a "maybe" access to a free hoist from my dad's work. Same one I used to drop my motor in. But that's always up to the manager there.

Heck bring it over here. We have a trailer if needed.We can knock it out in a short time
How much would labor be? I'd gladly stick around and do the most work as well, and the truck can drive out there and carry the cab in the back.

I'm a student with no cash, so you get where I'm coming from lol.. I have 2 projects I want to get done this summer and that's an OD trans and this rusty cab. So I've gotta pray I can afford even the cab in time. And then maybe work in a budget paint job by the end if we can get a better compressor here at home.

Good news is I finally got a job back again so in a week or so, once I pay off my insurance I can start saving up.
