I'm a bit befuddled..... Can't you measure the opposite side to get the required measurement? I mean, it's a mirror image.

Don't tell us that no measurements were taken before commencing with this work! That would be an epic fail.

I assume you have a cab. Why not measure on-center from the rear cab mount to the front cab mount?

It can't be difficult to locate a couple cab mounts.. I have a 73 chassis out here with a couple. But fixing them works too!
