cab mounts

Got another Q. My bed and cab don't really line up that well, the back of the cab looks like it is lower than everyting else. Does this mean i need new cab mounts or is there something else wrong?

If your truck is like most, your cab mount brackets are probably rusted. This allows the cab mounts to sag, thus causing misaligned body lines. The rubber cab mounts will compress a bit over time, but if you're looking at a serious misalignment, check for the rust.

'05 Sierra 4x4 - Had 270,000 KM and running well when it was written-off by a stop sign runner.
'94 F-150 from the "F word" company. I'll admit it...good truck. Sold what was left of it for $800 to a guy who came to pick it up at 11:00 PM with cash in hand. Hmm.
'79 Sierra Grande (Black) organ donor - perfect rebuildable 4-bolt 350 and a good TH350.
'76 Sierra Grande (Orange) - hate isn't too strong a word. Kid who bought it turned it into a hot rod.
'68 C-10 R.I.P. - Dad's old truck...too far gone to resurrect.
'59 C-50 - with hoist. Truck is gone, wife isn't. Nuff said.
