No, they didn't.
IIRC, those FWD's had the same cabs that were on International Model V trucks.
E-26 had theirs enclosed after a Lt. in the company was hit in the head with a pipe when they were pulling up to an alarm box in Cherry Hill, a public housing complex in the southern section of the city. False Alarms and throwing objects at responding apparatus was done for sport there.
The BFD shops installed steel & plexiglass "riot cages" on the back steps of most pumpers, and with the exception of E-26, open cabs were left as is. Trucks were left open also. Men riding the left & right steps of Truck Cos. just held on and hoped for the best
