Cab Brace Ends

Upon further inspection of my "new" 68 f100 which is in pretty good shape except for the cab brace ends. I've found a place online that actually sells ends for the cab brace. Anyone on here ever had to tackle such a task? If so, any advice would be appreciated.

I haven't in a 68 but did in a 63. basically jack up the cab unbolt it to get it higher. remove as much as you can of the old. Weld in the new and grind it smooth. Not really much to it. I bought new cab bolts and cab mount bushings while I was there and changed them too.
