782 cab!!!

[poellot]

Because my first goal was making a good working machine. Not keeping it original. I added power steering. I am 6'2" so i raised the steering wheel a little from factory. I almost went to much. I didnt have the cab yet when i did it. The window just barely clears when hinged back.
I used a stainless exhaust pipe for the column.
I wanted an oil pressure gauge. I found one with the ih logo that was nos. I also found an ampmeter with the numbers and ih logo. Also nos. Added a good quality hour meter.
100 percent new wiring. I used closslinked wire. All white. And self laminating labels at the end of every wire so to make for easy fixing in 30 years. I added extra lights under the floorboards. Added wires for lights at the rear.
I also added a 4 pin round trailer plug. 1 is ground. 2 is lights. 3 is power. 4 is voltage regulated ground through a speed controller. The knob is in the position where a 982 had the rear pto switch. So i can run an electric spreader.
The fuel shutoff is now dash mounted.
Cigarette lighter and phone charger on the little cover infront of the seat.
I plan to add lights on the cab.
When its hot out ill be mowing at after the sun goes down. The led lights i used are already bright and dont take to much power.
