Cab mount ?

How hard is it to replace the cab mounts? I consider myself a pretty handy person but should I leave this to a professional?

Jason, are you talking about the rubber donuts, or the metal structure? The donuts should be easy. Loosen the bolts on one side of the cab, and using a jack, pick up that side a little. Keep in mind not to pull or break anything. Just do one side at a time. There two in your radiator support also. These may be a little harder to do. There isn't anything under the bed, it mounts to the frame. When I had my bed off, I put small squares of thin rubber at the mount bolts. If you need the actual structure replaced, I would get that done by a professional. Just my opinion. David

Yes the structural part is what i ment. Sorry for no making it clear. i talked to a frame shop today and the amount of money its going to cost i might be better off buying a rust free cab and frame.
