Cab Floor Question?
Can someone tell me what these mounts under the gas tank are for in my cab? I have had a couple cabs with these mounts and not found someone to tell me what they are for. Thanks

Cab bracing. The outer holes with the captured nuts are where the cab mount bolts come up from underneath.

Re: Cab Floor Question?
Would you know if they put this bracing in certain models or years? I’ve only seen it a couple cabs that I have had. Thanks

Re: Cab Floor Question?
I had a 67 that had it and a 71 that doesn't. Probably trying to save on metal in the later years.

Re: Cab Floor Question?
This pic is of my 68 cab but my 70 does not have them so maybe it is a 67-69 style bracing for those years.

Re: Cab Floor Question?
I also have a 1968 that has them. They had these thick tar paper pads for the tank to sit on. I bagged those up to save since I'm going to under bed tank.
