Removing cab
Is it necessary to brace the cab when removing it from the frame?

Re: Removing cab
Can you post some good pictures of the inside (interior removed) and underside.
If its decent there is no need to brace the cab. I just did this. See my signature line for more info. Mine was braced because im doing a complete floor pan replacement.

Re: Removing cab

Re: Removing cab
No damage. Besides the wood connecting the strong back to the hoist. It was a rather comical thing to do around 11:30 at night. Sure my neighbors appreciated it.
