Re: Big back window

The rest of the cab is in very good shape. I have another firewall. The question for the group is. If I cut the parts that have been mangled and patch them in will there be enough support or should I try and replace the entire fire wall.

Re: Big back window

For me, it would take less time to replace the entire firewall. I would brace the cab, cut out the firewall, remove and weld in the firewall from the donor cab.
