ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle comprises a body structure, a cab mounted on the body structure for movement about a pivot axis between a normal operating position and a tilted position, and a support radially spaced from the pivot axis for supporting the cab structure on the body structure in the normal operating position of the cab, at least one of the supports comprising a keeper attached to one of the structures and a latch member attached to the other structure and mounted for movement into and out of latch engagement with the keeper when the cab is in its normal operating position, the keeper comprising a bracket mounted on the said one structure and a striker pin resiliently mounted on the bracket. The resiliently mounting of the striker pin in the bracket minimizes wear between the striker pin and the latch member during use of the vehicle and also reproduces vibrations transmitted from the body structure into the cab structure.
