how hard to do (body work question)

[trickedout420]

the truck im looking into buying is going to need cab mounts. not the rubber part but the actual cab support how hard are they to replace its on a 2wd 78 chevy shortbed

[lay low 87]

easy. the factory ones are riveted on, you could bolt the new ones on. i think most resto places have em.

no... since he said its a body work question, and not a frame work question, he's not talking about the portion that is riveted to the frame, but the sheetmetal mount on the underside of the floor. NOT an easy job at all. if they're gone, how are the floors?

[trickedout420]

the floors are fine its just the metal is pretty much rusted completely away. the part im talking about mounts to the frame and connects to the rocker.

Probably going to need inner rockers too.

I have been searching for cab mounts for my 74 CC. Ill let you all know what I come up with.

Everyone has the fronts, noone has the rear/middle mounts as of yet. Waiting on some specs from year one on a part that they don't even list on their site.

This may be a shot in the dark, but have you tried calling your local bowtie dealer parts department... You may be able to get atleast a part #...

likely discontinued, or superceded numbers, which take a little bit of work to track down. i have access to the resources to track them down, just havent had time to do it.
