Cab Dolly
Anyone have good plans for a "Cab Dolly". Need to build one and not the greatest concept artist or fabricator.
 Thanks in advance

Do yourself a favor and put the biggest rubber wheels you can afford on it(8-10 inch), smaller wheels won't take much abuse and they wear out quickly. Usually Harbor freight has some big wheels cheap. I had smaller wheels under a vette and one of them gave out when I hit a crack in the driveway.

Nice webpage - thanks for the link
 I agree on the wheels. I plan to use a dolly I fabbed up for our Camaro shell a couple of years back to hold my cab later this week

Here is the one I made from scrap 2x2 square tubing. I just took some measurements off of the frame and went from there. I also used the 2x2 tubing for the uprights, then welded some 3" wide plate to the tops that stick outward, then cut the same size holes in the plate that is in the cab mounts on the frame so I could use the old cab mounts. Weels are HD rubber coated steel casters from Harbor Freight.
