Add-On Cab For Deere Gator

Add-On Cab For Deere Gator TRACTORS Cabs 34-5-28 John Herren, Louisville, Ky., didn't want to spend the money for a cab for his Deere Gator, so he made his own for only about $100. He used 1-in. sq. tubing to frame the doors and to make the door posts. The door posts are mounted to the floor and rollbar, just behind the vehicle's fenders. He used Lexan to fill the space above the fenders, between the rollbar and door post. The doors were framed to fit the space behind the door posts and to follow the contour of the rollbar down to the floor. He used 16-ga. sheet metal for the lower door panels and 1/8-in. thick Lexan for the windows. The door hinges are made from short lengths of 1/2-in. dia. pipe and 5/8-in. dia. rod. "The doors can be lifted off in good weather. I used stick-on pieces of foam as weather stripping around the doors," says Herren. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, John Herren, P.O.
