speweik Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I recently acquired a '52 LF which needs some cab work. The lower back of the cab is rotted out pretty bad, as are the lower door posts. Although I am new to Macks, the design of the lower cab rear leads me to believe this is a common problem. So, my questions: 1) does anyone make replacement cab backs for the LF, and 2) is the LF cab the same as any other models (from some pictures I have seen, it looks similar to the A model). Thanks in advance!! Corey Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/21843-l-model-cab-parts/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

speweik Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 Thanks, Vinny. I'll check that out. Fortunately, with the relatively straight lines of the L model cab, it shouldn't be too hard for even an old farmer like me to fabricate replacement panels. Still wondering, though, if the L cab is the same as any other model....
