Cab Built For D6 Caterpillar
![](/images/resize.php?w=300&img=/images/articles/17/3/29809_l.jpg) ✖ ![](/images/ajax-loader.gif) |
We built a cab for our D6 Caterpillar from scratch to our own specs. The main frame is made from 3-in. sq. tubing 1/4-in. thick. The skin for it is 3/16-in. plate steel. The doors are Series II Steiger tractor doors. The doors are removable in hot weather along with the right rear window. The cab is fully insulated. In Oklahoma it's rare that we would need extra heat if the sun shines, so at present we left out heating and air conditioning. We're thinking about adding air conditioning. We used all new material, spending a total of $3,315. (Herbert Kliewer, Rt. 1, Box 15A, Orienta, Okla. 73737 ph 405 227-39X)
