ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a concept for a series of forwardly tilting truck cabs which may be readily adapted to different sizes of trucks. The basic structure of the cab comprises a front wall, a back wall, a roof assembly and a floor assembly. A plurality of standard functional modules may be fitted to the basic cab. The complete access step unit is separate from the cab and is directly secured to the vehicle chassis. Exposed parts of the cab are provided with stiffening members of which at least some are adapted to perform additional functions.
