Re: Frame Windscreens

Thanks that would be helpful. SkinnyG was kind enough to measure his cab and give me his readings.
( 19.25" or 490mm measured down the center of the defrost ports, shoulder to shoulder, NOT at the ends of the flanges.)
I have 18.9" - 19.0", 480-484mm one same place.
At the time, I had built a device to check the dimensions, which are also correct, but differ from SkinnyG's measurements, so another value would be good.

Re: Frame Windscreens

Checked today my 61 and 62 are about 19 1/4". On my 61 I replaced inside and outside metal above the windshield and the flange will need ground down some.

Re: Frame Windscreens

Thanks for measuring, so I'm missing about 1/4", I'll have to come up with something.
