Cabs need to be shimmed up at the rubber mounts so that cab does not touch the frame. Use stacks of fender washers as shims, like the factory, or hole saw 3/8 aluminum. Make sure you have clearance between frame and the stamped rim around the hole in the floor. Shim so the cowl seam line aims at the bottom of the radiator nose- shim the rad support too. Maybe a layer of rubber belting or tire side wall.
Make sure to assemble t/c linkage with the belville washers between all pivot points.
Wrap vinyl to match the upholstery over the toe boards and door panels.
Use 'high temp headliner' spray adhesive to glue packing foam to the inside roof before installing the headliner.
Wah-la, you can carry on a conversation at free way speeds.
