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

Finding a lot of posts but not sure I have it straight. Based on what I've found -

You can use the 63-66 mounts but you need longer bolts in the front. Can someone confirm?

I'd rather buy mounts for 62 but can't seem to find anywhere to buy them.

Thanks!

You can use 63-66 mounts but will need to use the original bolts for the front or get some that are a 1/2" longer than what the kit comes with.

Perfect, thanks!

The original front bolts are 9/16"x6"long, good luck finding those 1/2" longer

Not sure I understand. A grade 8 bolt 9/16 x 6" costs about $1.96 from my local hardware place. I remember buying them when I built my rotisserie for my 65 burb.

I can't seem to find the singles online but here is a box of 25 at lowes... am I missing something?

So, not a problem getting a 6 1/2" long bolt ? The longest I ever see is 6" in any diameter...

You're right, I went back and checked my notes and I had to buy them online. Found them here
