cab mount torque?
Can anyone tell me the torque for the cab mounts? I'm replacing mine with my donor cab swap on my 29 f150. Also I'm welding the mount brackets where they rot in between the rubber insulators. Being as the part in the center of the bracket on mine is gone, what is the pad supposed to look like? Is it just flat with a hole where the ceter of the donut sits?

Are you reusing the existing bolts, or did you buy new with the bushings?
The new bolts usually come with Ny-locks. They have a different torque requirement than the old.
I don't have the data for either, but I figured I'd toss this tid-bit out to further confuse the issue.

No new bolts with the bushings. The ones from the rear mounts I can reuse. The front ones I will need new ones for. I will not be getting new factory style washers and collars though. they are rediculous in price. I saw good used sets of them for $200. New ones were enve more. I'll either use just large washers or try to make up some kind of a collar arrangement.
