There is no reason to pull the cab for any of that. It can all be done in cab.

I know that. I am also cleaning the whole frame and recoating it as well. It will take less time with the cab off, and just for experience and knowledge of doing it. I like a challenge.

For curiosity's sake, what is the charge for doing studs when you pull the engine? I wish I'd have had the money to do studs back in December when they pulled my engine out to do fix the bedplate leak. It was still under warranty then so I had the hard part paid for... didn't have the cash for the studs though.
