Cab Mounts - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have some rot on my cab floor where the body mounts are. And the brace that is under the floor is also rotted.

I was considering cutting out the rot with a solid guage steel, then instead of fabricating the brace, I was going to use a longer body mount. In my head this would be a lot simpler and still structurally sound as it would be simply to a body lift that you might do on an off road vehicle.

In fact, I might even consider adding 2 extra cab mounts in the center of the floor, but welding in some frame brackets.

Anybody have any thoughts on this?
