FINALLY back on the job. I've had one crisis after another that's kept me from the truck but now I'm back.

Since I want the cab bolted to the frame when I rebuild the rear of the cab I'm going to rebuild the rear body shackles first. Of course, there are rust problems here too (as shown) so new parts will have to be fabricated. Other than that, this looks like a pretty straightforward procedure.

Bottom is passenger side disassembled including shims (between floor and shackle) that were not present on the driver side.
