I know I am jumping in here with no value add to the conversation, but I cannot help but ask for some additional information from the group here... I am bad a reading the assembly manual, so... can anyone on this thread be specific about what the manual says about the gaps between frame and cab, both front and rear? I understand the 3/4" pieces of wood to approximate the rear gap... how about for the front of the cab? One more complication... I am putting the cab on an Art Morrison frame that does not require the rear shackles.. the cab is hard-bolted to the frame just as is done to the front of the cab. Any thoughts on what to be cautious about when mounting the rear of the cab in this way? My thoughts are that as long as we achieve the assembly manual gap recommendations on the rear, that is what matters, so add shims and pads as needed to achieve that gap. Also, I will have the option of playing with a completely new floor assembly individually from the cab (that is, I can mock up the floor by mounting it to the frame before I remove the old the old floor and weld in the new floor... does this make it easier to achieve the right gaps or will the whole world change when cab and floor are one unit? Thank you all in advance for helping a guy who is good on ideas but pitiful at bringing those ideas into reality.
