Hi everyone, I have a ford 7710 with cab and I am trying to put a new stereo in it. I have the front plate, and bracket off, the problem is it is hed from behind somehow, and I cannot get my hand back there. I took the interior light down but that was no help. Has anyone took one out before, or know how it comes out?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

Welcome to TBN...

Does your cab look like mine? (See pics)
NH tractors are built by LS which I have. If the cab is similar there are 2 nuts in front behind the front cab lights and 2 nuts, one above each door. By removing these 4 nuts and washers the top will lift or tilt up. Its hinged in the back.

JG, you have to pop the top of the cab. 2 bolts in the middle edge of the top, hinged on back with a prop rod to hold up. The radio has a bolt on the back that keeps it secured. Also have a lot of room to access radio once top open.

Thanks, TractorTech. I figured the top must come up somehow because it looks like they put the radio in and then built the tractor!!!! I will give it a try

On an early style cab, upper rear work lamps must come off (and can hang by the wires) if present.

Popping the top up worked like a charm. Was able to get to the radio with no problem (and clean up some dust too LOL!!) Thanks for the replys Guys!!!!
