Steve,
I replaced the drivers floor with a purchased patch panel, passenger
floor with my own panel, the inner cowl panel, the inner-to-outer cowl , the
lower oustide cowl on both sides and a portion of the toeboard on both sides
without using any bracing and nothing shifted. I just made one change at a
time and it all seemed to stay put. I think I did the floor and toeboards
first. The hardest part was getting the inner to outer cowl piece to fit as it
was really a bad fit and I had to cut it in sections and redo most of it.
Good luck and let us know how it works out.

Subject: [oletrucks] Cab Bracing
I finally bought the patch panels for my
51 3100. Does anyone know of any
websites or have advice on the best way to
brace the cab to replace forward
in/out cab corners and forward
floor/toeboard? The cab is sitting on the
frame, but not bolted, and doors
off. I did all that awhile back when I did
the frame. I took measurements
before and after and nothing has shifted on
the cab. Any help from the all
wise and knowing would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
