Hi im trying to tip the cab on a ford d series . I know its easy but ive never done 1. I pulled the lever on the side to unlock but it still seems to catch on something. So i walk away instead of wrecking something. and ask for HELP

I think you need to rotate the gear lever.

From memory - you have to turn the gearlever around before you tilt the cab. There is a latch at the rear of the cab and I think a safety latch by theback of the left front mudguard. it's been a while since I did one - hope this helps

Agreed, the latch thing inside the cab can be very tight, depends if a gorilla tightened it last. Don't forget to clean out the stuff behind the seats or you could bust the windscreen.

From memory __in side the cab in the center at the back is a lever lift up and unscrew. the one on the outside is the safety catch

A lot easier to tip if both doors are open.

lol, I recall well a slightly built young apprentice that did that, and managed to get his overalls caught on something, he was 3 ft off the ground, absolutely helpless, as we were from laughing, the photo stayed on the wall till he qualified
