Hey guys, I knew my cab needed a little work when I bought the truck, but the more I look and research, the more concerned I am...
The floor is rusted through in the valley where the floor meets the rocker panel on both sides, the right side is worse than the left. Also I am a little concerned with the cab mounts. My main goal is to get the cab to a point where it will pass a safety inspection, but I also want it to be done right.
Here are the pics:
Right Rear Cab Mount The previous owner added a plate underneath for strength
Right side Floor/Rocker Right Side Floor Previous owner riveted in some sloppy patches
Right Side Floor/Rocker Left Rear Cab Mount Left Rear Cab Mount Left Front Cab Mount Left Front Cab Front OK, so now here is my questions. Do you think the cab mounts and cab supports need to be replaced? I assume the cab would have to come off the frame to do that. If that is necessary, can I just lift it 8 in and replace what needs to be done? My garage space is limited.
LMC sells something called "Outer Floor Ext" is this what I need to repair the floor?
Thanks a lot for the help guys. I have a welder and am learning as I go. Body work is not my favourite, but I recognize it as a necessary evil.
