Hi guys,

In the teardown of my F15A,

I cant get the front shell off, all bolts are removed. Including the two underneath, the toeplate around the accellerator, clutch and brake. Can you guys give me a hint? The 2x4 snapped when I lifted the cab (and front clip) .

Is there any dowels as I note in the manual (Ford) MBF1 Section S4 Para 12 States: Attach chain fall and raise front end shell assembly. My question is: Is this necessary or can I just lift/prise it forward?

Figure 12 of the manual shows the Front Shell lifted. Is it that the old rubber seal is sticking the front to the cabin?

I will be happy for any advice as to a solution.
The photos show my progress to getting it off.
