Getting it done..... looking good....jacking it up looks like the thing ta do.....CHEERS
I think you have the bushings in the right position.
Thanks Buddy!!☺
Finding those quality parts makes all the difference on the repair. Looks like you have the mount figured out. Nice work Buddy. Cheers
Thanks Lloyd!! Yeah those brackets were a godsend, I was gonna start fabricating new ones the same day I found them!! That saved me a few days of work!!☺
Looks to me like you’ve got the mount, stacked correctly. Those new cab supports look sweet, and made in the USA, too! 👍
Thanks Tony!! Yeah I was really surprised how nice they were!!☺
Is there a link for those supports that I’m not seeing? I need a couple
Looking good RK and your going to have a whole new truck there!
Thanks Kong!!☺
...good job, better than new, have a good weekend and stay safe..
Thanks alot Bob!!☺
I noticed that the welds on those cab supports you bought look different than the ones on the brackets that you fabricated! LOL! Those pieces sure look nice! Glad to see some people still take pride in their work.
Those folks who live in the southwest and western states have no idea what high humidity and road salt does to vehicles! You see a little rust spot, cut it out and it’s three times worse behind it!
I imagine how frustrating it must be to have to keep cutting out more and more and patching all of back. Keep plugging away buddy! You’ll get it eventually.
Thanks Scott!! I like to think my welds have a little more character!!☺
Chugging along nicely.
Thanks Bud!! Still a ton of work to do!!☺
Thank God for reproduction panels. But you still have to have a certain amount of talent to fit them in place. Nice work so far. I always enjoy the Ford series.
Thanks Wyatt!! Yeah even a bad reproduction panel will at least give you something to start with!! These panels are pretty decent compared to some of the stuff I've had to deal with over the years!!☺
Love those aftermarket braces!! Beautiful parts! Thanks!!!
Yeah Buddy!! I was pleasantly surprised!! I don't know how they can sell them for $100 ea.!!☺
You are correct with the cab mount assembly. I enjoy your work on the old Ford
Thanks alot Mike!!☺
I’m more of a chevy guy, but I’ve done two cab bushing replacements, and your stackup looks correct to me. Just from process of elimination, there must be a washer at the very bottom, next to the nut, and a washer at the top (cab floor) under the bolt head. And no washers between the two rubbers. Keep the truck videos coming, Road King. 👍
Thanks Greg!! It's funny, I'm a Chevy guy myself!! Owned my share of Vettes and 57's!! Don't know how I wound up with two Fords!!☺
Great job buddy thanks for sharing
Thanks Scrotie!!☺
Its nice you can get flooring panels already made ! This is to be continued a few times I think ! I'll be watchin' !
Yeah Buddy!! Should keep us busy for a while!!☺
I really enjoy watching you work on the F100! I look forward to each episode!
Thanks Dad!! Plenty more episodes left!!☺
Alright, lookin good RK. I think your hdwre. sequence looks logical and workable. Thanks for the look.
Thanks alot Mac!!☺
Good work King , Going to be a super nice truck ! ENJOYED..
Thanks alot Shawn!!☺
lots of work there,, mounts look right to me..
Yeah Buddy!! Should keep us busy for a while!!☺
Mount looks correct. It's hard to find quality parts these days you lucked out. Great show buddy!
Thanks Buddy!! It's hard to find quality anything these days!!☺
Cab mounts, the restorers nightmare. Looking good so far EJ.
Thanks George!! Thankfully I can do most of the work from the topside instead of laying on my back!!☺
Only the judges at pebble beach will knock off points, if your rubber is on inside out. Looks great 👍
Decorum prevents me from making about a half dozen jokes about “ if your rubber is on inside out”!😀
Thanks Joe!! If this truck ever makes it to Pebble Beach it's only because they need something to collect trash in!!☺
They’ll look good doing so.👍
You have the correct orientation of rubber mount. Same as my 66 Bronco
Thanks alot Fish!!☺
Your mount stack up looks correct... but you still need a crush sleeve in each of your new sheet metal cab supports.
Thanks Josh!!☺
You're having all kinds of fun with that truck ;) I need to pick up a proper welder one of these days. I have one of those cheap Harbor Freight flux-core welders that someone bought me about 5 years ago, but those are not meant to do any serious welding. Speaking of that, something happened at the factory where I work that pissed me off. I while back, I saw 6 Miller welders sitting outside near one of the dumpsters. I figured they were getting rid of them because they had burned out, etc. Nope! I found out a few days ago that 4 of them were thrown out simply because they wanted to cycle some new welders into the welding department. And the other two were almost NEW, but they had a different wire feed system, or something like that, and they wanted to standardize all of the welders. Supposedly those new ones were something like $3,000 each! Like I said, I was PISSED. I couldn't believe that they didn't try to sell them, or at least offer them to employees. So I talked to the appropriate people, and told them that the next time they get rid of any welders, they need to let me know. They said they would :) So I have a chance at getting a nice Miller welder for free! Even if I have to pay scrap price for it, that's still not bad. Of course, it could be a year or two before they get rid of any more of them, and I am not sure if I want to wait that long to replace my HF welder.
That blows Bud!! Hopefully it works out for you!!☺
@@805ROADKING Thanks buddy :)
I like it!
Thanks Buddy!!☺
Lookin good Roady. The stack up of the mount looks correct, but from this side of my monitor the bolt looks too long?? Might not be, not sure. You might need to die the threads down a bit more. The whole cab will be a helluva lot stronger once you've got done with it.
Thanks Mart!! That bolt also has to go through a 2¼" Cab mount bracket that is attached to the floor pan!!☺
Looks like you are doing it right to me. Maybe you could call Carolina Classics and ask them. I'M not sure myself never done them either buddy.
Thanks Bob!! We finally found an illustration on the interwebs from one of the parts houses!!☺
RK,
Check the cab mount on the passenger side and use it as a model for replacing the driver side. Same concept as changing brakes, use one side as a template or "mirror" for the other.
The aftermarket cab mounts are different than the original!!☺
Its getting there.morning matey :o)
Mornin' Mate!! Yeah one bite at a time!!☺
The bushing sequence looks good, but the cab needs to be lifted to accommodate the deformed old hangers and compressed old mount rubbers. Looking good there, RK - gonna be like a new truck (but with better wheels, I'm guessing?)!
Thanks Tony!! Yeah those wheels are just to help it roll while we work on it, it's gonna get new rims and tires (tyres)!!☺
your cabmounts right the way you had them and also if you need more metal google flashback f100s in nc.thanks
- nick
Thanks Nick!! We seen them Guys at the Carlisle swap meet a few years ago!!☺
@@805ROADKING order from them and lmc truck and blueovaltruckparts google all them and i have a few more if interested.thanks
- nick
Working on taking off my drivers side front fender today 😬. I've bought a bolt kit from carolina classics 👍
Cool!! My front end has been apart so long it's gonna be like putting a puzzle together!!☺
@@805ROADKING haha, pictures! do you have the body/interior assembly manual by Jim Osborn? I also have the picture instructions for the cab bolts. Would you like me to send a picture?
Thanks Kev!! I have the Ford Shop Manual, that covers just about everything!! I already found a picture of the cab mounts from one of the parts houses but thanks for the offer!!☺
You could probably make a silicone mold of the old rubber piece right of a lighter silicone and then look for a heavier silicone rubber mix and pour it in there and get the exact shape that you need because it's not going to ride right unless it's the exact shape or you can shave down the new piece to fit
That tar stuff was probably sound deadening material, dunno what they make it with, but it's nasty when it needs to go away...
Luckily most of what I removed so far came off easy just by chipping at it, but I still have alot more to remove!!☺
it cant be three years since you got this truck
5 more months, it looks like the first video was Sep 17, 2018!! It feels like 10 years!!☺
Have you ordered from dennis carpenter?
Yeah we ordered the door weather stripping from him!! Decent service and pricing!!
The prize for guessing the correct weight is... The rusty metal. 🤣
Lol!! Shipping that would cost me more than the new metal I replaced it with!!☺
@@805ROADKING true. 😉🍻
