Legorigs Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Can anyone tell me how and where the cab of an Ultraliner tilts? I cann't figure it out. The front is split into two pieces but I can see on some pictures that there are hinges on the bottom, just above the bumper, so what is the use of having two parts? Or better yet if anyone has a good photo that explains it. (yeah I've started building an ultraliner, I like those COE s) Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/1138-ultraliner-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superdog Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 The front is not split in 2 pieces,thats just a seam.The hinges are right down next to the bumper.thats where it tilts.

Legorigs Posted May 29, 2006 Author Share Posted May 29, 2006 Ok, thanks for the reply, makes it all a bit easier to build. Anyone has a clue what the seam is for? Just for my knowledge.

Superdog Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I don't know the reason for the large gap/seam between the front corner panels and the main cab body.I've never done any body work on a MH,but I'm betting it had something to do with those corner panels being bolted on separately for ease of repair,kinda like the grille,it was in 6 sections,if part of it got damaged,you ddn't have to replace the whole thing.

Legorigs Posted May 29, 2006 Author Share Posted May 29, 2006 Yeah, it puzzled me too. The seam runs all the way from one side to another (for who hassn't got a clue what we're talking about, it's the gap just above the Mack logo).
