You cannot remove an attachment point from an mesh unless you have the mesh to edit.
You can remove what every is addressing the attachment point in the config file

"You cannot remove an attachment point from an mesh unless you have the mesh to edit."

But there is a work around.

To remove an attachment point:
Open the original mesh in a hex editor and change the reference, for example, change "a.cabfront" to "a.cabfrontx"

This can be used if the original cab attachment is too low. Then using PEVSoft Attachment Maker an attachment mesh for the cab can be made.

Better change "a.cabfront" to "a.cabfronx". The new name of the attachment point must have the same length as the old one.

not really sure that N3V would support the editing of a mesh in a hex editor and editing a.cabfront would never be a good idea.
As i said just removing the reference to the attachment point in the config would be the quickest work around = that's what worked for me with the same issue

OP has not stated which attachment/s he wants to remove or re-use.

Mostly we can just ignore the ones we don't want. In other words don't call them up in the config.txt.

Modifying an attachment's position or rotation is considered tampering with the original copyrighted mesh, even though it's dead easy to do if you have the right tools.
