Question '42 cab to frame mount question

I've got a '42 1/2 ton. The cab is 'loose' from the frame and wonder about how these were bolted to the frame.
A while ago I saw a thread that had schematics, but can't find it again.
I do remember somebody said there were wood blocks involved originally.
Anyway, do I just bolt it down wherever I can find holes aligning or do I need to put some rubber in between the cab and frame?
Sorry for the questions, but I'm real new at this sort of thing.
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the group. You need a set of these wood blocks. These are commonly listed on eBay. Stu
