cab mounts conquered!!

When I bought this truck, I knew the mounts were rusted, but not totally gone, guess it was abad time to buy a vehicle at night in 28 degree weather. Anyway I finally replaced the cab mounts with a pair I had cut out of a parts truck. What a huge difference with rubber in between the cab again, this truck is finally tight!! Just a little bragging, I am impressed with myself, never done that type of work before.

definitely, that was major surgery, and the result was well worth the pain.

Congrats! That's why we work on these old trucks -- to see a problem and to fix it, and notice the difference. It's a huge reward in itself.

I will try to get some up later this week, for what ever reason, spring has left, and winter is back, we got about 2 inches of snow today, and I live in the south, we are not suppose to get snow.
