Re: Raising Cab and Cab Mounts

I really don't know the density of hockey pucks. I've very honestly never had one in my hand.

I'd say it is up to you and that it would be a simple task for you to build decent risers to either sit on top of your stands or weld to your stands to raise it up. A correct length of the right size tubing, a piece with the proper size hole drilled in the center to weld into the end of that tubing (both ends if you don't weld it on) and there you go. Beats the tar out of those galvanized pipe nipples some of the local goat ropers used for body lifts on their 4x4 trucks around here in the 80's and 90's because they were too cheap to buy lift kits.

My ongoing truck projects:
48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
