Default looking for floor pans and cab mounts

i was wondering if any has found a good place to get cab mounts and floor pans. i took my 81 in to be and the cab mounts need to be replaced to pass and i figured if i am going to fix the cab mount i should replace the floor pans while i'm doing some metal work in the same area. i know someone posted a link to here but i am wondering whether those are even the right cab mounts since they only weight 4.2# and it is suppose to include all the mounts i think.

try energy suspension 54101 for cab mounts,just put them on my 93 d150,worked out great. the application is 72-85,but they still work up to 93. i bought them from ;Suspension Restoration Parts Company,polyuerethane in red or black 68 bucks.
as for floor pans try a local to you crash parts place,should be a reasonable price there,you wont have to pay shipping either. good luck

i don't think i need the rubber part but i need the metal above it that holds the cab to the frame. the mechanic called it a cab mount so that is what i am looking for and the only picture i see are of the hockey puck looking thing.

i have some stainless steel out back. maybe i will see how well my flux core welder does against it. if the welder does a decent job i may replace most of the floors with stainless steel.

i think i might have seen them while searching but they don't ship to Canada. only to the 48 contiguous states in the USA.

i went into my the one local parts store and it would have cost me $250 for both left and right floor pans. i guess i will be using stainless steel.

Bought my floor pans from JC Whitney. They were okay but I had to trim them a little. Primarily cause I installed over my existing floor. I used self tapping flat head screws. Decent price and sturdy. Shipped fast too. Don't know if you ever use them but they always have specials that can save some bucks.

I did the floor pans, painted and insulated the floor, put new vinyl flooring, repaired the busted tension wires under the bench seat, fixed the seat slider and painted the seat frame while I had it all out. Funny how one project just grows into other ones real fast.
