    WE have a t800 and Pete 385 Daycabs. Is it possible to extend the back of the cab to get more leg room? Similar to the new extended daycabs.

    I googled different sites, there seems many people doing it, but cost wise, i may just build a tiny room on the trailer fronts

    and attached small generator, would cost a fraction of stretching the frame


    and after reading u post.(again).

    I think u just need leg room only:Courier: , might take off the shoes..cant justify the hassle lol

    My frind did MB vario cab extention, not sure, but about 20-25" He fit small self made bunk there. But extended cab looks a bit ugly with brutal welding.
