Hey guys, here's my situation:
Bought my truck a few weeks ago, and was told it would need cab mounts and that the parts were included.
Turns out, the rear cab mounts are typical squish and wear, but EVERYTHING on the front was gone.
The cab channel was gone, the floor supports looked like they had been re-fabbed with cheap angle iron, the cab mounts themselves were a big ball of rust, and half the parts had been filled/covered with spray foam and some kind of rubber/silicone. So basically, I have no idea what parts I took out.
I have found the body mount bushings, cone-shaped ones for the bottom, doughnut looking ones on top, and two 1/2" grade 8 bolts. I'm concerned I'm missing pieces and have had a really hard time finding a decent how-to for this. Does anybody have a parts list, or maybe a picture of everything I'll need to get my cab bolted on properly? I had read in a few threads here about some sort of space? I definitely have no spacers whatsoever....I do have a mig welder and the ability to fabricate small parts if I need to, but don't know where to start.
Thanks for any help!
