Front cab mounts

I just spent the better part of the afternoon removing the front cab mounts. I went through 3 spot weld cutter bits . I can see why they do not hold up as there is no paint any where under them. Mine were still solid but on the area under the rubber mounts there was a lot of pitting. I hope D C has them in stock.

While you're at it are you making room for a Coyote 5.0L?

Cab mounts

The Coyote has already been pre fitted, I made a new "B" crossmember. I have 1" billet spacers between the frame and crossmember. Nothing near the level of the Hackster project just the best I can do with what I have and what I can do.
I was able to mount the fuel pump in the stock tank. I still have a long way to go but maybe by the fall it might be rolling.

DC should have them. Fitment might not be great. If you can get them in 2 pieces they will fit much better. Good luck.

Cab mounts

From the pictures it appears that they are spot welded together. I will probably do a combination of plug welding and bolting them back on. A body man owes me big time and said he will help me getting them back on. I will try to post a few pictures of the carnage later today.
