Abstract
A stabilizing and isolation system for mounting an operator cab on a vehicle frame includes at least one resilient member disposed between the underside of the cab and the frame for resiliently supporting the cab on the frame. Motion limiting members are connected to the frame and the cab for restraining vertical displacement of the cab relative to the frame during a catastrophic event. A stabilizing linkage assembly is connected to the frame and the cab for restraining rolling and pitching motion of the cab relative to the frame, the assembly including resilient means to permit relative vertical motion between the cab and the frame.
