Chariots of Fire Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 One of the biggest issues with this kit is getting the mounting points for the cab right. And unless the frame is straight it only compounds the problem. Try straightening the frame pieces before assembly by running them under hot water and applying a bit of pressure. The weight of the cab once it's built just isn't enough to overcome the warping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrod59f100 Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 I think once I get it were I want it I'm just gonna glue the cab down . iytthe way it will be displayed it won't need to have the cab tilted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
