Paul if you ancor to the frame just make sure it is also ancored to the cab better so the frame mount will break first and the secondary mount will stay attached to the cab being double nutted to the sheet metal. Just bolt thru the cab and back it with a nut and large washer on each side using grade 8 nuts and bolts then use a lower softer grade on the frame nut. That way it could shear if the forse was enought to knock the cab loose and still be bolted to the cab. As long as you are still ancored inside the cab with the belts you will be protected better even if the cab is tore off the frame. Mark H.
