Replacing Cabin Blower

[Stonetile]

Hey everyone, I have been working on repairing a mistreated Bobcat 873 F Series, don't know the year, but I'm stuck trying to remove the blower assembly as it is broken. I had to soak undeath the seat before I could move it forward at all to have some access to the rear of the blowers and cannot find a way to tilt the seat. Is there a way to tilt the seat forward or just fully remove it? And is there any simple way to remove the blower assemblies to replace them? PS It has a full cab and I cannot get at a few of the screws on the outside of the blowers either Thanks

Sorry for the double post here, don't know how to edit a previous post yet. I just found out how to actually lift the cab off and found where the blowers bolt onto the cab from the outside and I just have to disconnect the coolant lines from the heater cores now to fully remove the blower assemblies. Sorry for the dumb post

There is never a dumb post, not everything is easy to work out when you are new to poking around a machine. Good to hear you figured it out though.
