I am having great problems in trying to get cab spares for my 1979 M.F. CRAWLER. The tractor has a WESTLODE CAB fitted but they seem to have gone out of business???? The spares I am after are cab mounting bushes they are METALISTIK brand and the only numbers on them are 18/1296. They seem to me to be the same type as they used on the old Duncan Cab.Westlode were based in Spalding,Lincs P.O.box 40. HELP

hefennat, what is the problem? I don't know anything about the suppliers you listed, but I assume because of the age of the crawler that the original mounts have rotted away. If you just want to make it functional you could get some replacements made out of steel or aluminum. If you still want the vibration dampening you possible use some stiff rubber washers. Might help if you post a picture or two.
