Today I made some cab mount nuts out of some turn buckle nuts and a washer welded to it. This didn't take very long so I decided to make a box to sit on the frame to hold all of the crap coming out of the cab. Using the board from the cab dolly and a piece of plywood it only took a few minutes. Good thing I did because space is running low and I filled the box up.
So the wiring wasn't as scary as I thought it would be. Removed all the knobs, wiring, and heater core from under the dash. The last damn thing to get out was the wiper pivots. The gaskets behind them need to be replaced or they will leak and rust the floor out. I don't want to do that again.
Apparently the one on the passenger side had been leaking. The bolt on the bottom had rusted through and it snapped off when I tried to get it out. Then I found that the whole area around it was rusted out. A drill doesn't fit in there and you can't get to it from the outside. So I have a week to figure out how to fix it.
