I am thinking it may be more cost effective to look for a used cab off one that wasn't a 4x4 and wasn't exposed to the winter elements as much. Are the FE180 cabs the same as the smaller FG/FE140 cabs? There is a 2005 FE180 locally with just over 94,000 miles on a 4M50 advertised for $5,000, but negotiable. Probably close to what all that metal work would cost me as I don't have these skills and would have to pay someone. And who wouldn't "need" a spare 4M50 with only 94,000 miles? And a bonus if it has AC as my FG140 does not.
