cab mounts...new or used?

Post by GT-Racer »

Just wondering how hard it would be to cut the good cab mounts out of my parts truck rather than buy new ones that may or may not fit right. Give me you thoughts and opinions please.

Thanks in advance.

Just get a good spot weld drill bit or about 3 good metal bits from a hard ware store. Second, may as well buy hard ware store bits if you're not worried about leaving holes in the cab. The after market cab mounts aint worth _ _ _ _.
