One from 1939 on HD truck axle rebuilds, one from 1951 on big truck brakes and one from 1948 on servicing truck cabs.

Boy-o-boy, "Servicing the Truck Cab" is a win for me. I'll be using that real soon. Thanks, Brad!

Great stuff that "servicing the truck cab" is! Yes indeed! I wish there was something like that for fitting an AD hood. I cant wait to fit mine properly, it looks bad.

Marco, have you checked/adjusted the front and rear cab mounts for the specified gaps between the bottom of the cab and the frame. This, in addition to the proper spacing at the bottom of the radiator bracket will likely help you getting your hood to line up. The Factory Repair Manual will walk you though these adjustments. Unfortunately it doesn't explain that these cab adjustments are crucial to getting the hood adjusted properly. The fender bolts also need to be loosened and lowered before you start.
