Re: cab rotisserie

That's cool. Very nice piece of "home engineering". Keep this thread going with pictures of the work you do on that cab.

Re: cab rotisserie

It will probably be a little while before I start on the cab as I am coming from the ground up, and just got done with the power plant, the frame and rear end are done. Getting ready to buy transmission and exhaust. If your interested in the rest of the build look up "finally starting" thread.

Re: cab rotisserie

Cool piece, wish I would have had that while welding on my cab. Would have made it so much easier.

The only dimensions I can remember off the top of my head is the base is 56" wide and the upright angle pieces are 47" long angled to the center, and it is 21" forward of the strike plates. I think its 46" tall on the casters I don't remember.

Re: cab rotisserie

Nice rotisserie! Now I gotta find your build thread since we are practically IL neighbors.

I've gotten a little more done to the cab. I have been spending most of my time and money on the driveline.

Re: cab rotisserie

That rotisserie looks pretty handy!
Is the brace/pivot structure all bolted in?
Looks like you used the catch mount points in the
rear, and the upper hinge mount points in the front.
Is that correct?
Any bracing welded to the cab?

Re: cab rotisserie

The front is attached at both door hinge mounting holes with angle iron that goes down to the lower. It attaches to the striker plate holes in the back.
