Rusty cab mounts help!
So I'm finally getting to the cab rust repair now that the back half of my truck is done. The fro t cab mounts that are welded to the bottom of the cab itself are complete garbage. Not even enough there to get decent measurements and build new ones. I know I can build a new set but it would be easier and faster if I found some that were pre built. Anyone have any ideas. They sell a set for 97 to 02 Dakota's, they look very similar but I can't get the company that makes them to take measurements for me. Mine is a 93 4x4 ext cab 5.2 auto

My solution. I am completely aware that it's a total hackjob and I'm not offended if you laugh at me...but I did the best I could with essentially no money lol.

It's been bout 4 years and the rubber has compressed a little but not much and the cab is still sitting a little higher than the bed (need to put some little spacers to lift the bed bout a 1/3-/1/2 inch,

Dur I'm an idiot and didn't read the whole post. Anyway I have a '94 parts truck that I could cut the mounts off of. They're not in awesome shape but quick inspection they seem more or less structurally sound, might need a little reinforcing. Not sure if I'll be able to turn the bolts out but if they're anything like they were in my '93 then they'll spin right out.
Let me know, any day I get to use my angle grinder and sawzall is a good day.
