Re: Cab rust repair.

Good to see you getting on with it, nice work on the doors. As far as bracing goes, all I can say is it is cheap insurance. I have done it without bracing but it involved taking the doors on and off more times than I could count. And it was also mounted to the frame with the opposite front fender and core support bolted up. My theory was that the opposite fender would help keep the front of the cab in position. Not sure if it worked but everything went well.

Short answer, brace it!

Good luck, Rg
