    What about a proper ball joint removing tool? you should be able to get one at Pep boys? if not keep hitting mine came off with a 40oz hammer but it took a bit of hitting and was out of the truck. Grant

    thats a thought, but um unfortunately the Cutty Sark burnt down, so wiill avoid wood. I um got a phone call today someone looking for a cab for his R model because his had to much rust in it around the top. i tried selling him the flintstone cab i have but wants a plastic dash cab, he is going to chabge his mind when he sees how bad this cab is an hopefully fixs his.??

    I am only doing it once! then if it falls to bits i can ask why, rather than go well thats because i was a slacko and took a short cut. i flipped cab onto its back today, am going to do work undernieth and brace it a little more so i can run some beems through to solid mount it to the 60inch bunk, then make cab and bunk air ride. and also will pad under floor, i will be able to here a mouse fart when engine running Grant

    The middle item is the inner section above the door, when you open the door and look up at cab, thats what your looking at. i need all these panels, but more are available, just let me know what you want and i will price it for you. Grant

    Hi, 34k is from Mack for that cab, i assume its complete??thankyou for your comments, will finish it. its going to cost around 5k in parts to fix the rust on this cab, atleast it will be rust free by then, poor thing is collapseing its that bad. 3 more panels turned up today. this is an easy job, just time consumeing, its all just repair or replace. I am all so building a replica Bat mobile from the dark knight so the Mack is an easy project compared to the ground up build of the Tumbler.

    Hello, a Mack dealer in Australia. but you have to get a parts guy that knows how to look in a book and cross referance and then translate to another number and go on a computer. i am dealing with a shop in Brisbane. most cant do that, they want a chassis number, then when they punch that into computer it says to old and they say sorry cant help. that panel pictured is about 500.00AUD and there is a heap in sydney. there is also a brand new cab in sydney for 34,000.00 have 3 more panels to pic up today Grant

    Hello, no worries. thankyou, thought it was batteries, but the one i caught a quick look at the other day looked like it was to small, not enough depth for batteries. the one i am wrecking now had batteries on left side only and was electric start. Grant
