Yes, you're right, and I "did" think about that while writing, but was already a ways in. Had no "tall" buildings in our area. Were never any buildings more than 3 stories, and pretty much had no reason for the packs there.
My time in was back when open jump seats were still OK. Also happened to be in one of those jump seats on a 3,000 gal engine when it overturned on a small rural road. Had hot engine oil spill over me. Still don't know how it was possible, but one of my bunker coat snaps snagged on the truck cab and I ended up ripping it right off when that oil hit. From there everything went hazy. Stood up, stood there for what seemed like a long time. Walked around to the front of the engine. There I saw the fire chief on the bottom (on passenger door) and our maintenance man on top of him and trying to climb up. Neither of them were very small men! *lol* I could see their mouths moving but heard no sound. Slowly the sound came back and I snapped back into action. Then had to go to the hospital to get checked out for oil burns - got lucky!

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
