Set cab on chassis. start cab mounting to chassis

Motor looks kinda small in chassis with cab.

As COE's have six rear cab mounts in rear and only 2 in front on a flimsy sheet metal cross member.
Made of 1/8 wall 1"x2" steel tubing. An angle is bolted to the frame, a 3/16 flat bar welded under wheel well,
a strut is fabed in two pieces with 1/4" plate between them. 
After all other cab mounts are in place and bolted down, weld strut in place.

Remove 1/4" rubber material of medium density.
