L47 cab options

[Knautical2001]

I went to their site and read, " Front windshield ihas glass coating so adding a wiper is no problem. "

Can you explain to me what "glass coating" means?

The front windshield is a little thicker than the rest of the cab windows. Seems to be a little more stiff as well. I’m guessing it has a layer of glass which allows the wiper to be used on it. I didn’t get that option.

There is a guy on FB that just built a really slick cab for his 2501. Took him around a week to build it, He even added heat and AC to it. IIRC, he said he had right around $600 in just the cab materials.

I wonder how long it took him to make?

Pretty sure about a week.

Is it removable or a permanent situation? Curious.

I’m sure it COULD be removed but I doubt it would be a simple task. He’s got a dash built inside with EGT gauges and other stuff like a fuse panel, radio, etc. he built a turbo for it and upgraded the alternator to IIRC 130 amp to handle the heat and AC unit he ordered for it. I think he said the back of the cab was a bus window. He’s got several videos up on his build. He’s a very talented guy who does quick, very clean work. I’ve really enjoyed his videos.

After posting, I realized I was factually incorrect, so I delete/edit my mistake.

I know some are looking for cabs for your TLB's. Our M62 has a cab. Easy to install, replacement parts are available, and they have quite a few for the different model TLB's. Cover My Tractor is great and it is a quality cab. Everything is made here in the US so there is a lead time. Just check with them what the lead time is. This cab is easy on and easy off. Comes with a storage bag for taking it off during the winter months.

I know you have only had your "cover" for a short time, just wondering if you have anything new to report?
