Ashton Stasko tried to pull in a bowed wall rear cab wall of the sandbox on DS-50. This was not successful and eventually Mark Belmonte got a track jack up onto the cab floor and into the battery box and we were able to straighten out the wall enough so that Ashton could weld the wall into place.

This shows the bar that Todd welded into place in the cab door of the replacement cab. This was done so that the back end of the cab will not spread when it is eventually lifted into place on the DS-50.
The Monon projects continue ongoing at Hoosier Valley!Much more still to do, but we're getting there!
