What is everyone using for a spacer between the cab and the frame? Mine had what appears to be asbestos pads.

I believe that the originals were a reinforced rubber sheet. If I remember correctly, I purchased replacements from Midwest Military.

I have used rubber truck bed floor mat and cut to size using tin snips and hole saw for the bolt holes . The rubber material has fiber in it to keep from pushing apart when compressed. Also can be stacked to get the right thickness.when done it looks like it was made for the application and gives better isolation than the fiber material that was originally used.
You can check the auto salvage yards for a chunk of it.can come in handy for numerous uses.

Thanks all, I got a set from Midwest Military- the kit had the cab and bed spacers in it. Good stuff.
