How do the body mounts on the cab put together? I have the round rubber pieces and then these cone looking ones and the bolts and washers but how is it all susposed to piece together?

I am not sure how your kit is set up, but the round doughnut sets onto the frame mount with the protrusion down through the hole. The large washer goes on top of the doughnut. There should be a spacer (pipe) that fits into the doughnut and the tapered rubber part fits over the spacer with the small end down. When installed the two pieces of rubber sandwiches the frame mount so the large doughnut is on top and the tapered rubber is on the bottom.

On the rear mounts the bolt screws into the body from below through the setup with the smaller washer on the bolt.

On the front mounts the bolts go through the floor and through the mounts and there should be a nut for the bottom end along with a washer.
