Re: How to get to cab bolts
Cab bolts are accessible from underneath the cab.

Re: How to get to cab bolts
the bolts go into the cab from underneath. they have a welded in piece that has the threads... if that is spun you have to drill into the floor to take em apart manually or use a blue tip wrench

Re: How to get to cab bolts
If you end up stripping these trying to get them out (we did...the squares at the top couldn't compete with thirty years of rust on the bolt and stripped out), get some 5/8 or 3/4 nuts and weld to the top of the bolts, then a long 1/2 inch wrench on the bolts at top/bottom should get them. We had to do that to get them out.
Nothing is ever as easy as it may seem on these old trucks!
