Need help.

Doing a frame off with a new frame and am getting mixed reviews about the new frame im using. I need to order cab mounts and wanna make sure I get the right set. Cab is a 1985. I posted pics of the stamps on the frame on driver and passenger side.

Looks like an earlier frame. Look at the front frame horns, that will tell you for sure. I have the frame part numbers cataloged on my other computer and can check later.

What Vile said. If the front of the frame where the bumper mounts is cut off at an angle its 81 or newer. If the front of the frame is sort of rounded, so the bumper would mount right to it. It 73/80. As far as cab mounts you want them to go with the frame, not the cab.
Have you got pics of the front of the frame?
Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs
