Open cab Rear cover adjusting bracket......UPDATED

Post by Bill_Wolf »

Anyone have a rear cab cover bar adjusting loop bracket for sale new or good used. Mine broke. :(

This is the loop that the rear cab cover bar fits into and secures to the side. It adjusts and holds the bar.

Picture Below...

If you are unable to find replacement, remove broken bolt from clamp, could be done by carefull use of gas cutting equipment, weld in 3/8" unf bolt, threaded part in handle could also be removed by carefull heating of area around handle and unscrewing.

Hope this is of help.

Hello Rob,

The bracket has been repaired in that manner by the previous owner. I was just testing the waters before I got the "fire wrench" out.
