Thanks for the replies and ideas. I guess this is another debate there isn't a strong consensus on. Neither is there a complete right or wrong. I can see situations where either could be fine. I don't want to drill completely through my tubing frame, so I would need to use a screw if I attach directly to the tubing frame. If I want to use bolts, I will need to weld some tabs to the inside of the frame rails (tubes). If I go this route, I would be able to remove the cabin from the chassis if I ever need to. For me, it's more about whether I want a mounting that is easily removed. If I were not lapping the outside ply over the frame, I would use screws and not think twice. If I needed to remove the cabin, I could slide a recip saw blade between the frame and cabin and cut it loose. Long and short of it, I guess I'll go ahead and weld some mounting tabs and bolt it down. I cant see any reason I would regret doing it this way.
