Blue man Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 What Britains Ford would be best for a 6600 a 5000/7000 or a 7600 And does anyone make or could make a fritzmeier cab like the one below Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 The older Britains 6600 skid unit would be a good start, mate. Doesn't have the bonnet droop and has a steering axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 the britains deutz cab has a similar shape to it for the cab? wonder if that would work with some reshaping on the windows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B O R Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 definately the old britains chassis..the 2 pictures i attach is of a recent FORD 5000 4wd conversion i done and spent a while comparing the old and new britains chassis,it seems the new one,s dimensions are way too big.....the old one seems perfect and would be hard to beat......good luck with the cab as you,ll have your work cut out but it,d make a nice model.that cab is popular in ROI.......i agree the deutz cab might make a good starting point....

Tractorman810 Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 the dx 92 / 110 mate thats got a similar door shape and front screen shape, may need work on the rear windows and window shapes in the cab door mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
