       SBU cab tilt mech

       Attached is a drawing of a mechanism I built for tipping an SBU
       cab. The drawing isint completely dimensioned but feel free to
       ask if unsure.
       I've built and tested it, it works very well although I'd use an
       air tool to wind it, its tedious.
       No bending or flexing but I'd still use a chock and check strap
       when in raised position and needless to say dont be under it
       when raising / lowering.
       I built it for pennies, 2no 1m long M30 threaded bars 6no M30
       nuts & washers (not sure of cost), 2no thrust bearings (~€5ea)
       and some scraps I had lying around.

       Very good idea here. Works off the same principle as a vice only
       on a larger scale. I'm going to give this a go.
       Thanks Claran.
