Hopefully yours are better. I could tell the ones I bought were junk when I took them out of the box. The pinch weld area was almost non-existant one one side, and they cups were wrinkled very badly on both. I hope they work out for you, but if they dont, I recommend GMC Pauls. Anyway, you are makin great progress on that cab.
Thanks! These are just as you described pretty much. They're nice and thick but the stamp is all wrong I'd say.

Thanks for the compliment. You guys are right... These LMC cab corners aren't the best fit... I messed around with them a bit earlier but didn't have a lot of time. It just seems like the are too wide and once attached to the pillar they won't attached to the rear floor without some serious bending and pounding. It's like they need about a 1/4 inch cut out of them. Ill mess with them a bit more tonight or tomorrow and if they're not gonna work ill look at some of the other you all mentioned. I don't know why I don't look through the vendor board more often... Might have save me the time and trouble with these.

Do you have a link for the Tabco corners?
