Heck yea [cl
There was certainly a lot of banging, that for sure!
So a friend of a friend with a lot of experience in body work and chops came over a gave me pointers. I should share the one that saved the day on that door. I put a piece of plywood up against the wall in my garage to protect the sheetrock. I then took a long 2x4 and rounded off the corners of one end. Opened the opposite door, ran the 2x4 through the cab sitting on some roller stands (having a buddy help would work better maybe depending on the buddy), and kept the caved in door closed. The flat end of the 2x4 goes against the wall and the rounded off end is used against the door sheet metal. With the cab on casters, I could then push the whole cab against that 2x4 and even ram it a bit when and where needed. I just reached through the window and positioned the 2x4 while pushing with a leg and my other hand. Once it was pretty much pushed out, I took another wood buck and a big hammer to get other spots. Then it's down to hammer and dolly.
