Working from the front and center of cab, align the clamp, cushion, shell, seal and floor (see Figure #1) and insert the 3/8 bolts into the holes of the clamp, cushion, shell, seal and floor and continue for all remaining holes.
Note: Figure #1 is a 3D cross section of the parts stack up for the front flange. The side and rear flanges are similar to the front.
If the (4) front center bolts (see Figure #2) are not perpendicular to the cab floor, use the 3/8” drill bit and drill/reem through the mounting hole until these bolts can be inserted without any restrictions.
On the right-hand side of the cab, the second bolt from the front, apply the thread locker to the threads of the bolt as shown in Figure #3.
On the Rear Left-Hand side of the cab, add thread locker to the threads of the (2) bolts indicated in Figure #4.
