ABSTRACT:
A mounting arrangement for nonrigidly connecting a vehicle cab enclosure with a vehicle body, comprises a rigid, elongate plate fixedly attached to the base of the enclosure and extending around a marginal surface of the vehicle body. A plurality of pins are attached to and depend perpendicularly from the plate in a spaced apart and generally aligned relationship, and are telescopically inserted into mating apertures positioned in the vehicle body for sliding cooperation therewith. A flexible and resilient gasket is positioned between the plate and the vehicle body marginal surface and receives the pins through associated apertures positioned therein whereby the gasket resists the transmission of vibratory motion between the vehicle enclosure and body. A plurality of longitudinally resilient fasteners are spaced apart along the body marginal surface and have one end thereof connected with a sidewall portion of the vehicle enclosure and the other end connected with the vehicle body. A resilient member urges the ends of the fastener convergingly together, thereby pulling the plate toward the vehicle body marginal surface and securely, yet yieldingly connecting the cab enclosure with the vehicle body.
