Question Cab mount supports in 82 4X4. How to fix?

Hello all,

I have researched quite a lot and tried to find parts to fix the cab mounts, but I need more that just the available floor pans.

The 4 main cab mounts that go under the floor pans (for strength I guess) but on top of the frame mounts are totally rotten in my Cab.

Aside from the floor pan replacement, does anyone know if these body mounts (if that is what they are called?) are available at all anywhere?
I am assuming they will need to be fabricated, but that is stretching my fabricating and welding experience.

If I could find some pictures or the cab mounts or what they look like, that would really help me as I am a bit stuck at this point.

Really appreciate any help/guidance on this.

Rotten floor and cab mount underneath.  Frame mount is good.
