Front cab mount thickness/pics
 
Hi I need the thickness of the front cab mounts, I am making spacers and looking to make some poly ones. If you have a pic to help me my floor board is pretty rusty so I might need your help in putting the mounting point back.
thanks

What year is your truck? I just redid the floor and firewall in the 52 I am working on and it was about .060 thou thick. I think that is 16ga. I have a few pictures under my build thread if they will help.

I can't remember for sure...I was thinking it is 1/4. I am heading down to dad's tomorrow and if I remember I will measure it for you.

I measured the new ones that we bought yesterday and it is .230. I don't think it will crush very much because it is pretty hard rubber. Anyway hope that helps.

great, so about 1/4inch. wow I thought they were going to be thicker. I could probably cut a poly bushing in half for both. Are there washers top and bottom or any at all??
