Re: Cab Support Question

Oh yeah, I forgot.....as my wife says, "and another thing"

Didn't one of you have a floor pan that the mounting hole for the bolt was off about 1/2"? Mine looks like it will be. I just wanted to see how that worked out for you. It night have been Alan, so I'm going to search through his build and see if I can find it.

Re: Cab Support Question

Damn, didn't think I would get the batteries charged, photos snapped and loaded on here before a member of the posse caught me, but I may have made it. The first pic is of the tabs I question if they should be bent outward at a 90 and the second is of the hole in the main brace.

I bent my tabs out:


I posted in another thread asking if anyone has used one like this:

Yeah it's me. As far as the tabs went, I just cut them off to length and butt welded it. Did you find the pix you needed? I only had the problem with the hole location on the drivers side.



This might not be the best way to do it, but that is the way it is. I think it will be fine. It has several more welds where I drilled out the old spot welds.
