well I have been busy doing "to-dos" on the truck. I will follow up soon with some pics & an update... but right now I hit a snag... I was getting ready to replace the rear cab bushings when my pass side mount bolt started spinning - it appears that the nut is broke loose from inside . I was able to find a thread that kinda covers this, but hoping that I can get some confirmation on the way to repair this situation.... any assistance would be greatly appreciated. more to come!

Easiest way I'm aware of is measure in from the outside and use a hole saw big enough for your sockets to drill a hole in the hump behind the seat. It's flat there so pretty easy to weld a circular patch back in after you get it sorted out or you could just use a rubber plug. https://www.amazon.com/Black-Rubber-.../dp/B073NM9263
