Cab to chassis bolts

Post by welshrat »

Hi all,
Would anyone know the size of the rear bolts that secure the cab to the chassis on a pick up. The two that fix through the cab floor to the plates on the chassis that have treaded holes.
Any suggestions please.

5/16 bsf. You probably know the threaded holes are for the seat belt fixings.

Hi Les, thank you for the info, to be honest I did not know that they were for the seat belt fittings, probably would of worked it out down the road when too late. Big learning curve putting this pick up back together, lots of differences to the convertible that I am fairly familiar with.

Yes you would have found out, the holes in the cab floor line up with the threaded holes, so as the belt bolts can pass through.

Biggest problem I have is that I did not strip the pick up down, no pictures, labelled parts or nuts/bolts to assist with putting it back together. Are there any van/pick up bibles out there, I have all the well known ones and a bath catalogue but they lack the detail about LCV's I would like. How I miss Mr Crew who lived just up the road and had forgotten more than I will ever know about Morris Minors. Expect many more questions, apologies in advance.
