Thats a good question. Theres a difference between black and red belly cabs. Ive had both. I assumed the doors would fit either one but im not sure ------------- 1984 80780 1957 D14 DES 300 with 25000 engine 616 tractor |

I've got one of each, a maroon 77' 7040 & a black 79' 7060. Give me a few minutes & I'll go do some measuring. The above two measure the same on their left doors. Approximately 61.5"tall, 33"width@handle, 16"width@floor, 19"width@top, 31" from top of top hinge to top of bottom hinge. Actual Fitment~I'm guessing the same? Don't know about early 7030/7050s? Guessing only major difference between maroon & black cabs is that the maroon has forward leaning "cultivator view" windows in the front lower left/right. Glass is flat. The cab's mid-line sheet metal contours from the door's handle area that itself slopes outward. That outward slope wraps around the front over-top each lower front "cultivator view" window. The windshield above them is perpendicular(lays flat). The black cabs have an all flat front. So their windshield & lower windows are on same perpendicular/one piece plane, but the doors kept their original maroon slope contours.

Acousta cab version 1 style matches the lines of the tractor, much nicer looking. The acousta 2 seems like a hack job they just cut off the forward leaning parts. For what reason? Maybe a few inches more of glass at the expense of cab volume the engineers must have been bored in early 78. ------------- ALLIS CHALMERS "The color is orange" |

| I'm thinking that front corner was difficult to fab and costly. View through the window really isn't much different with the taller glass in the later version |

| I think you'll find the door structure itself is the same. It's all the trinkets they added to the second gen cab that makes it seem different. |

| The doors will interchange. The only difference was the fancy inside door handle on the newer ones. |

Were the 7000 model have identical cabs as the other 7020 on up have? Felt like I could get into a 7000 much easier for some reason. ------------- He who says there is no evil has already deceived himself The truth is the truth, sugar coated or not. Trawler II says, "Remember that." |

| Steering wheel is different in later series. I can tell the difference between my early 7060 and the 7045 |

| The steering wheel and the newer step made a huge improvement in cab entry and exit. I even added 3/4" to the door lock open strap to help with big wide loads. |
