I started to do some repairs on my 94 f250 IDI turbo and decided just to take everything apart. Repair the common areas on the cab and clean and paint the frame (black rustoleum). I'm also going to install a new clutch, presure plate and SMF including pulling the engine and also do some work on it while I have it apart.
I have pic's of the mounts I'm just wondering if I should buy new ones or or reuse the old ones which are still soft and are not cracked they have a little damage around the bolt hole but not much. The front two are also in decent shape but don't budge off the support, don't want to force them. One more thing, on the front left lower cab where it mounts to the frame I need to repair this area, does anyone have a source for the replacement section or do I fab?

thanks

Um... no. Not if I were putting the effort into things that you obviously are. I know Ford wants a pretty penny for them, but your only going to buy them once.

That section of the cab is available, I can't remember if it's aftermarket, or Ford only, but, you most definitely can get it.
The poly bushings are usually in the sub $75 range, but, personally I prefer the rubber ones, as they put less stress on the cab, and they do make for a better ride.

I got rubber bushings and new hardware from LMC to go under the radiator support. I put Prothane black bushings from Summit in the other 4 positions. Rides firmer, but I can live with it (I'm pretty picky). I had cab alignment issues and the rad support hardware was broken from being in a bind. Out and on the shelf my rubber looked as good as yours, but the back of the cab sat about 2" low when they were still in the truck.
