Help!!

OK..the 67 has some problems...
Where the firewall mounts to the frame via body mount, it's all rusted out and the cab is sagging hard and it sags so bad that it hits the steering knuckle so you cant turn...Is easily fixable?

Help!!

How much are they?
The part where the cab mounts to the frame is rusted all to hell..I jacked it up and put a 2x6 piece of wood in there for temp. usage...I can get a pic of it if you want to look at it..it's pretty rusted..
And..the inner fenders are rusted out so the hood latches dont work..I hear thats pretty common with that particular body style though..thanks for your help

Help!!

cm my 99 cat. lists them for $90.00 a pair.

Some of these old trucks have such bad sheet metal from the salt baths in the winter, that there isn't much left to work with.

Help!!

We have a saying, "Jack up the radiator cap and replace everything under it" Some of them develop a severe case of cancer and there's not much you can do except replace the pieces one at a time and seeing how everything is mounted to the cab, the biggest and hardest is needed first. You can put a jack under the fenders, jack them to the height needed and start welding in supports and stays to the fender and then bolt them to any holes in the frame. Sorry can't help much more then that.
