Cab mounted, ladders mounted
Finished up the cab this weekend and mounted the ladders, seat, temporary gauges and starting wiring, steering wheel , Had to modify the snubbers a little. New ones were a little deeper then the old. Finished off after modifications with a little pressure from a bottle jack and a narrow top. Compressed snubber just enough.

Thanks Bobby. I thought this weekend would be a ride around the block but I had a little air in my brake lines. When we were setting the cab, I had to depress the brake peddle to get the cab past both peddles. I had to let some fluid out of the front but must have introduced some air into the system. Bled them twice from rear to front but still not very good brakes. They were perfect before I started, so I will keep at it. Next week end. That will be my task.
