JD 160DLC Cab smashed.
Have any of you replaced the cab on a 160DLC? Today one of our trucks got ran off the road, the trailer went into a deep ditch and the hoe fell off (pulled the tie down rings right off the trailer)and rolled onto the cab side of the machine completely destroying the cab. We got it back on its feet and took a wrecker to pull the cab enough to get in and free the controls to get it running again and on the trailer. I guess my question is if any of you has put a new cab on? and can you get a complete cab with full interior and controls and if not how big of hassle is it tho move everything to a bare cab to complete it and put it on? The insurance company hasn't looked at it yet so we don't know what they will or will not pay for. We are just looking into what direction we might go when they might write a check, hopefully. We think nothing but the cab and rear door are the only damage but we still haven't given it a good look at yet. Luckily it was a soft muddy ditch and that cushioned it well so I don't think there was a big impact to harm anything mechanical. What can we expect to pay for a used cab? They look fairly easy to change but sometimes the easiest looking stuff turnout to be the hardest. If the insurance co treats us good we would take it John Deere for the repairs but if they get skimpy we have to be ready for other options like fixing it our self. Any experience or advise?
