Re: Cab removal

I attach a 4x4 post across the long horizontal on my hoist, used some short 2x6 and threaded rod to attach the the post to the bar, and then lift with that. I've done it many times with no problems.

The 4x4 goes through the door openings and I generally work with the doors already removed.
