Cab Mounts

I need to put new cab mounts on my 4900FA. Is there anything I need to watch out for?? Do you just do one side at a time or both? The cab looks like it has moved back a bit, how would I get it pushed back forward?

Thanks for the help!

Well, for anyone else doing it....

We looked for a long time and figgered out that you need to pull the carpet up and remove a little aluminum plate to access the cab mount bolts. Then the bushing's steel sleeves were rusted to the bolts! Very hard to access the bolts with hammer etc.

The cab needs to go ahead about 1/2 - 3/4". I think I will try ratchet straps or something to pull it forward.

Some fun!

Thanks!! I think there might be some hot wrench work needed!! Finding a place to lift the cab is tricky too!!

Tony, I ended up taking it to a shop lol!!

I have had to replace the cab air bags and used a couple scissor jacks I had from old cars. I put them on the frame and used a block of wood against the floor. Not sure if there is enough room to do that in the front though.
