Default Floor is in good shape......

Hi Jacek

Can you measure the distance between the edge of the inner fender to the edge of the engine cover in centimeter.

I have found two different floor plate and different inner fenders on the cab 11 and cab 12 and I have no explanation why the difference.

It seems that some early cab 11 models had a narrower foot area than later cab 12 models but then I found some cab 12 with the same narrowed foot space. It also means that the inner fender is more bulbous as it protrudes more into the pass. and driver's floor area.

The inner fender on these models have notches cut in them to allow to clear the spring hangers...... I beleive that there is at least 30 cm differences.

Here is your picture with the area I would like you to measure.

Anybody else care to comment on the differences.....

Thanks

PS having problems attaching pictures

The 2 wheel drive and four wheel drives are what makes the difference. The two wheelers turn sharper so need more fender space.

Default How come.....

We find these narrow floor plates on 4X4......

Hi David

All my observations have been on the 4x4 models of cab 11 and cab 12...?


It really makes the space for your feet very tight,

Bob

Here is the picture I was trying to send Jacek

The arch frames are different on the two to four wheelers too.
My cab 11s are all two wheel drives.
