Pulled the cab off my 7040 last weekend and put ROPS on. Thought I'd share a before and after picture.

I don't regret doing that same thing to a rough 7060 that I bought last winter. So tell me, do you find getting into and out of the seat a 100% easier? Looks ok to me.

Looks like you also painted the muffler, changed filters, a battery, and gave her a wax job. Turned out well.

Much easier to climb on and off but it's way louder than I expected. Muffler is actually a new Nelson muffler that I put on earlier this spring. Yes I added rear weights and 20.8 tires. The radio is still in the cab.

You "cabless" people must be one heck of a lot tougher than me, or else your summers are cooler and your winters are warmer than they are here. I rather enjoy a good cab with working heat and AC. Darrel

If you dont mind me asking, how much did the Nelson muffler cost, and where did you find it? |

If you need parts for your Gleaner, we are parting out A's through L2's, so we may be able to help. |

Dont remember the price. I bought what I believe was the last remaining stock direct from the factory a couple years ago. Last time I seen a Nelson muffler for sale for a 7000 series was well over a year ago and it was just over $200 and they no longer have them listed. That was at a truck repair shop.

I'm sure it would be a lot of work but the end result would be better. Someone put a 6000 series cab on a 175
