Some Progress

Just put a couple of pics up in my gallery. Acheived a milestone for me as I got the cab off the frame today. Now I can get the engine pulled and start taking the frame apart. The only cracks I found where in the drivers side cab support arm. I'm looking forward to pulling the engine.

John -

Pretty creative way to take the cab off. Looks like it worked really slick.

Now, most people figure they can pull the engine with the cab still on, you know.

Yes. I know... This is just the process that I have had in my mind. Less crawling around underneith to get to bolts and such.

Very nice. An engine hoist is a good thing, very innovative
