Does anyone have any picture of the reinforcement plate that goes into the cab area mounted with the 95 rivets?

Here are a few pics of the reinforcement plate that came pre-installed in this NOS cab that I picked up a while ago.

Yup. Was still bolted to what was left of the pallet that it was delivered on. Looked like the cab was galvanized, and not properly prepped, because the paint was flaking off of it in big chunks. Sold my cab, which was still in great shape, to a SS member that wanted to build a stretched deuce so errybawdy's happy.

ps - make sure that if you plan to add or subtract a m66 that you line up the holes in the plate with the nuts on the u bolt. if you ever have to work on the ubolts and you are off on the holes you have to cut the u bolts, and order some replacements. i know because my m66 is moving from one of my M35a2's to my M109a3 and whoever installed the reinforcement plate did not get it straight. not a big deal but if you are going to do it, this is some info you might need. there is also more to the cab reinforcement installation kit than rivits. as soon as i can i will take a picture of the parts that go under the dash on the right side.
