My question relates to cab placement on the frame. The rear of cab rests on wood blocks. Does the cab's outer rear bottom rest on the frame or is there a gap and if so, how much of a gap is correct? Should the outside bottom half of the cab be vertical plumb or is there a slight angle forward? Thanks in advance for your help. Regards, Ken
