ABSTRACT:
A three-point mounting system including a single rear cab mount is provided for mounting the cab to, and isolating the cab from, the frame of a tractor. Two front cab mounts and a single rear cab mount individually connected to the cab at three different points couple the cab to the frame. The location of the three different points are chosen such that a reference line drawn vertically through the center of gravity of the cab will intersect at a point within a triangular area formed by a straight line connection of the three points. The single rear cab mount comprises an improved suspension member for reducing the transmission of shocks and vibrations from the frame to the cab.
