cab tilting on 56

A good friend of mine just bought a real clean 56. The cab is tilted to one side in the rear. He has replaced the mount on the "low"side with a new stock one.

The cab is still tilted to the same side and won't move up or down, nor side to side.

I don't have any experience with this type of mounting because I used the fully adjustable ones from mid-fifty.

He doesn't want to spend big bucks at this time, any ideas what he can do? do both mounts have to be replaced? or can he get by with just the one?

Thanks for any help

Wayne

you can buy one.. but this indicates some other problem that should be examined and addressed.
