Anyone got a cab door off?

Post by silverbullet »

I did ask this question in the "any other" category but it hardly seems to get viewed so excuse the repeat:

Does any one know how much a cab door weighs with glass fitted? Just in case anyone's got one unbolted and the bathroom scales can be pressed into service (don't get caught!) Within a kilo will be fine for what I'm trying to work out.

Ta :ok

I'm not in any rush so if it 's not going anywhere before I get up to you, I'll bring the big spring balance from the workshop to hang it off, if there's an iron roof truss in reach?
