1991 F150 Cab Mount Floor Support

Short of replacing the floor pan, rocker panel, and cab corner, has anyone ever replaced the cab mount supports? Just wondering how much of a PITA it is going to be. Any advice would be appreciated.

Well, thats what I was thinking. I'm just not sure since the floor pan has to come out at the same time and the actual body mount. I'm replacing the rocker panel as well. I guess I'm worried about the cab twisting or whatever. Guess I could brace it or put the door back on...

This guy did a lot of the same work on his bronco. Might give you an idea of what you are up against.

Yea, I saw this video. I like his videos but the jumping around and "look at this, oh look at that" style drives me insane!!!
