first hello everyone, recently purchased 84 sr5 extra cab to "fix up" for my son, and one of the MANY things needing to be done is removal of body lift and repair of cab mounts, appears that whoever put on body lift didn't do it correctly and/or over the years the mounts just broke. no cancer in mount areas but cab is just sitting on mounts not attached , that is were the dimple is in the floor is just sitting on top of spacer. my question is how are the mounts supposed to attach to the floor? dimpled washer on inside of cab perhaps? any one have a picture? sure would be helpful. currently posting from work but will post pics of what I have when I get home this evening. TIA any/ all help you provide.

mount from below


inside cab


things done so far
stripped front axle down to empty housing
replaced all bearings not including third member
degreased under carrage found source of oil leak, pressure sending unit on side of block
lots of rattle can paint to removed parts

and the fun begins

Welcome toy84, Im not sure on the mounts but pictures would help.. Good luck on the truck, your son is lucky to have you doing this for him..

 

Look at body lift pics on 4crawler.com

thanks for the welcome and yes he is lucky to have me , actually he was supposed to get my 2010 corolla s when he graduated college but he decided he wanted this instead, gives me something to do and him some incentive to keep his grades up

now if only I can get er done in the two years before he graduates

 

thanks for the link, very informative page. guess I better spend some time online before I get too far into this truck, gonna be mostly stock except for a suspension lift and few other small mods, thats what I'll do for him anyway, who knows what he may do one day
