Replacing the cab mounts? As in the bolts and rubber bushings...or the frame perch?

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
So today after school I got the four holes drilled in the firewall for the booster, they were not a piece of cake but not terrible either. The top two holes had multiple layers to go through which was pretty easy but the bottom two holes were a bit more trouble, once I got through the first later the drill bit hit the second layer which was on an angle and the bit kept on wanting to jam up but with some patience I was able to get through just fine. Here is the bracket mocked up on the firewall.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
I also have some more news, this project just keeps on snowballing. First it was "if I'm going to switch the x member then I might as well take the engine out" then "if the engines out I might as well clean it up and paint it" and then "while I'm at it I might as well do power steering, power brakes" and so on. Well I've done it again, I decided that while the engine is out I might as well paint the firewall since I don't want to take it this far apart in the future. So I have just put in an order for 503 glenwood green with one of my friends that is a painter so he can get very good paint for very cheap. I'm hoping to have the firewall in paint and the engine back in before it gets too cold
