triplekrt Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Looking for opinions on doing a cab replacement. Engine was rebuilt 2 years age by dealer. Cab has more and more rust showing up. Wondering if I should replace cab or just update to a newer truck. Not quite sold on a DPF and/or EGR engine. Happy with the simple E7 350. Found a cab assembly for around $4500. Thinking of doing this myself. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43369-1995-ch-613-cab-replacement/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Go for the cab replacement. Seems you like this truck enough to keep it. With the recent engine, you'll be money ahead with a simple, reliable truck. And, you can still run paper logs.Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43369-1995-ch-613-cab-replacement/#findComment-318514 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtymilkman Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Do the cab. They're relatively easy to change. The whole dashes are easy to come out too if you need to swap wiring harnesses Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43369-1995-ch-613-cab-replacement/#findComment-318525 Share on other sites More sharing options...
