Deere-est Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 TM if you are after a 390T bonnet for your conversion can you gimme a buzz when your sorted? I'm after the same thing. Would really like a nice 390T for bobbing around in. Have a 6180 but the floor pan of the 362 is a little tight over the back wheels. what ideas have you got, if you don't mind sharing them?

Tractorman810 Posted November 1, 2005 Author Share Posted November 1, 2005 i have made a cast for the bonnets now,,so more will be available soon,as for the arches,i found the best way to get a fit is to liftthe arch mould by 4mm,a bit of scrap plastistrut,and file out the middle of the front (where the foot pegs are)till you get the whole pan far enough forward.you will need to file out the old recess,where the lift lever wenr into ,to allow this to happen,and to get the 6180 seat back on it's konb.hope this helps, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Good job, I new ordering some plane sheet would help somewhere along. Have a small list for EMA to see to when I get a chance to phone it through. Will have a tinker around again soon and let you know how I get on with the cab mounting. I'll have a bonnet off you if possible, no rush or owt. Just when you got time to TM. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
