vanscottbuilders Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 A while back, I think here on this forum,someone mentioned that a Canadian company made R model cab parts. The report, as I remember,was not too favorable with regard to the quality ofthe parts.Take a look at the old posts (Spring 2008), and Ithink you'll find the info.Paul Van Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 are these cabs the same as an R model? if so what parts do you need?its costing me 3000.00 to buy a new roof skin and all gutter panels for an R model.regards GrantLet me do some research for you Grant. How much of a hurry are you in? Have friends sending sawmill equipment to OZ later in the year and parts could "hitch a ride" in the container. I'll try to find out more information as to port etc. I'm sure the guys that purchased the mill would have no problem mailing the parts to you once there.I purchased a couple of new OEM roof skins and have had the gutters made for much less money than you mention, (even after the conversion).Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

David Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 The cabs are different. But many of the parts are interchangable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
