Huntemcd 239 #1 Posted July 21, 2017 I'm just curious if a John Deere cozy cab would fit on a wheel horse. There would probably be modifying but how much? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,069 #2 Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) Don't see why it wouldn't fit, but the colors are not at all complementary. Edited July 21, 2017 by 953 nut 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JC 1965 1,530 #4 Posted July 21, 2017 Might fit but Wheel Horse tractors won't run with JD parts on them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could be made to fit and be painted with red vinyl paint and be a real nice custom....Lord knows there are plenty of customs..... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EricF 589 #8 Posted July 21, 2017 Might work, but I'm sure you'll have to cut some sheet metal and maybe the glass or plexi that goes over the hood. But for the love of all that's good in the world, be sure to paint it red! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DougC 2,641 #9 Posted July 21, 2017 You can make ANYTHING fit if you want it bad enough.............. Go for it!!!!!!!!!!!! Then paint that thing!!!!!!!!!!! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DennisThornton 4,769 #10 Posted July 21, 2017 One of my biggest disappointments is the lack of cab choices for WHs. From what I've seen and can tell JD whips up on WH in the cab department. Blasphemy here on this forum I'm sure, but for the sake of full disclosure, some others will agree. Hate the color but love that cab! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MalMac 1,331 #11 Posted July 22, 2017 It has been done before. Lots of modifying if I remember right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This reminds me of a colleague who purchased a new Dodge Truck back about 80 or 81. Just a plain vanilla standard cab with radio. The salesman asked him about air conditioning since it gets hot down here in the summer. He told the guy he had an air conditioner he was going to install himself. Then the salesman wanted to know what the unit came out of, etc. My colleague told him. The salesman told him, "It will never fit!" My colleague, told me, "He was almost right! I had to put that thing in upside down, so I have the coldest feet in town. And it will eventually cool the entire cab." 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
