    My goal is to hand sand the complete cab and get some primer on it to prevent and more flash rusting.Then when I’m ready to send it off to a body guy I may sandblast the whole thing for him so he has bare steel to start with,or what he wants.What’s everyone’s thoughts?

    Well I’m back at it,haven’t made as much progress as I would have liked to in the last year and a half.Life tends to throw a curve ball at you every once in a while.Mom passed,trust me when I say that came out of the blue. Got the truck in a safe spot where I can work on it.I got the cab off and in my shed where I’m hand sanding it.All the rust you see is just surface rust.Anyone know of of a good primer I can put on after the hand sanding to prevent any more surface rust.

    Looking down through the rear window the bolt on the left side does go through and protrudes out the bottom.The one on the right does line up going to play with it a little in the next couple of days.

    Here’s the pictures,1st is looking down from inside of cab,2rd is looking up from bottom.I can get the holes to lineup on the left side in the first picture.I am wondering if it just easier to cut out the whole mount area and replace it with a better one or to try and get the holes to lineup.

    mattb73lt,I am talking about the 2 mounts in the back.The 2 holes on top in the back don’t quite line up with the 2 on the bottom of the cab.I will walk out to the garage and get a picture of what I’m talking about.Been laid up last couple of days been in the hospital with some heart issues.

    I am in the very slow process of restoring my 64 B873SX.My question to all of you is are the cab mounts the same on the B80’s and the B61’s? I am mostly interested in the back 2,seems like the holes that go through the cab don’t quite line up with the holes in the plate on the bottom of the cab.I have access to a good cab off of a b61.

    Did you try tapping the s/p switch with a hammer? It may be stuck.

    Mowerman,you talked about seeing a Sunoco tanker spinning his wheels trying get out of the station.The problem they had was that the back rear was dead.They had problems even when they weren’t in snow the back rears were dead.Here in PA they would send them tractors to Florida for the winters,one of their drivers were telling me.

    I think I have a piece of sales literature on these in my collection.

    First I’ve made up a fuel cap so I can put some pressure say about 5-8lbs of air and see if there’s and small pin holes.

    I have todo this on the tanks for my b87, problem being is the weight.I’m thinking of putting tank on work bench and just shaking it the best I can and doing some spinning.

    My b87 dragging our low boy trailer empty was around 3-5 mpg loaded with say a cat d9 dozer it 1-2 mpg.Engine was a Cummins 335.

    Just to have,I would most likely part it out,since I have a b87.

    Just got some pictures of the cab.It has a gas motor most likely seized.Floor looks great,there are some rust spots on the doors but nothing that bad.Will try and get some of the pic posted here.

    I have a chance to pickup a cab for a b42.The owner tells me it has minimal rust.I haven’t seen it yet.What it worth.The frame was cut behind the cab.
