Never done that. I've never wanted to lift them that high. :-)

The 42" cab for the RA60 was a little different than the standard, IIRC.
It had extended-length sides, and was set up to have the top of the
upper-most RA60 accessible without sliding it out. The extra length
is to accomodate the long drive and still provide room for SDI cables
at the rear (and perhaps a cable support arm, I forget if the RA60s
used them)

I have no spares and would have no idea where to get such things except
a scrapper who hadn't yet cut his racks into handfuls of metal chips.
