DFK Cab

[Guest]

Just bought a Linhai 550 T-Boss UTV & had the DFK cab with heater fitted. It wasn't cheap but there are problems with it for those thinking of fitting. Firstly, the Linhai is basically the same as the Massimo. No rock sliders but i'm getting them made. I have the heater fitted but the gaps around the steering and numerous other places almost negate it's value. I have done a lot of insulating but the steering & pedal areas present a problem. The insulation is mostly on the roof and back of the cab to try to quieten the increase in noise. Also fitted rubber floor mats, the type you can trim to size, they do help. The cab itself has to fit onto round poles which presents problems and I have had to apply self adhesive door draught rubbers in numerous places. The washer/wiper works well but the motor & wiring look clumsy. The wing mirrors they fitted as part of the cab are next to useless, when I told them they said they had no plans to change so it looks like i'll have to.  I have kept the original 2 part opening windscreen and the door nets so in the summer I can be "Cool". ( and put the original mirrors back on. All in all with hindsight for the price I paid I wouldn't bother again, I would get one of those soft cabs for a 5th of the price & fit a Webesto or Ebespascher heater.
