[HUSSEY]

I’ve been working on getting my cab position set. I had been forewarned in that setting the cab height, the position of the motor, and the steering column and linkage is a bit of a juggling act.

After some back and forth, I decided to set the front of the cab 4 in. from the top of the frame to the cab floor board’s support. I think if I were to do it all over, I may consider block type hugger exhaust manifolds over the S10 conversion headers. With the engine set about 0.5 in. to the passenger’s side I think the steering linkage would have cleared it, but, since I had already purchased the S10 headers, I decided to just go ahead and commit.

I would have liked to go a little lower but in the end I think the 4 in. works out well. It provides good clearance between the S10 gas tank and the cab, doesn’t require too much of a transmission tunnel, and from the looks of it, I don’t think I will have any driveshaft clearance issues.

No pics to really post here, up next will be constructing the cab mounts.
