Another option for doing it yourself at home would be to take the nut off, relieve the pressure from the bolt then slide it out an inch and cut the head off the bolt. Then remove it the opposite direction and replace the bolt with a new one inserting that one from the opposite direction as well.
This man goes to heaven for saving me a lot of money
Thank you for this manual.
Very good
Why did frtlnr not just put the bolt in from the outside to make it easier?
My guess would be to make it easier to inspect to make sure the nut is on and tight.
Not really on topic but I know you got the answer. You're the man. I'm hearing/feeling a knock from the front end when turning at low speed. The harder/faster I turn, the worse it is. Could it be motor mounts? Or some bushings? Thanks.
I have same issue, did you find to problem?
@Mertusa yes. The leaf spring bushings were badly worn..
@Mertusa 6 total but only the bottom 4 wear out
@@thadiesel7655 thank you

Thx bro I need that done badly on mine
Glad this vid came in handy for you. Hopefully this gave you the confidence of you plan on trying it yourself.
I think FL should have made a bigger cab mount, like a double sized one.
People call our FL's freightshakers. Even a fresh truck gets tossed a lil more by strong winds than Volvo or KW.. but i like Cascadias the best. Havent driven a Peterbilt snd dont really care to. Back in the 70's and 80's growin up i liked KW's and Petes the most. Freightliner used to be White-Freightliner.. then the companies mustve seperated. White later disappeared.
Thanks for watching and reaching out. The cab mount itself is a descent size and about the same as the other makes out there.They do last quite a while but if it hasent been done by 500k than it will deff be time to get it replaced. Being in multiple diff trucks I do feel FTL has the look and best layout inside there trucks.But I Never get to drive them for more than 20 min so I rely on your expertise there..
How much was the jack and what's the lowest ton jack i can used to get the job done
@@donharris7349 that port a power jack can be pricey. A bottle jack and a block of wood will work just fine to.
Judging by mileage on mine it needs to be done. And by how harsh it rides. But when mechanic is trying to move it with a prybar it seems ok. Could it still be bad? I know it wasn't changed in last 700k miles or longer.
I would plan to have these checked every 250k miles. They are very hard rubber but will crack like everything else due to age. I would suggest getting your replaced.
Bro what kind of impact are you using model? Can you please write it down? I need it Asap
Thanks for watching and reaching out. Look up Milwaukee battery operated impacts. There’s a whole line of sizes depending on your needs. The 3/8 is plenty powerful and can handle quite a bit of jobs. My go to one.
i have the same problem. 2015 volvo 670
Why not turn the bolt nut aroun so it's easier next time??
Could do ,just gotta watch the fender and washer reservoir to ensure it doesn't get to close to them. But realistically these mounts should last 500k miles so once in a basics trucks life is about average.
Part number?
@@TheCbriley For your own benefit you should call the local dealer and get a vin specific part number instead of trusting a part number you get online.

@@bustedknucklebydieseldr3228 do you know anything about the clock which is set by the connect gps/cellular box up in about passenger overhead? The cellular light blinks gps light solid . Clock is off on time and 2 -- where heading suppose to be? Plz help
Great vid! Anyone know if there is a left and right? Or both sides, same part #?
The part number is the same for both sides. Great question though.
@@bustedknucklebydieseldr3228 appreciate it.. Thank you!..
Great informative content. Which knight you work for? Just applied for the Fontana location.
Thanks for watching man. I don’t work for them but I’m sure there a a great company. I know fleet companies are great taking care of there techs.
Man u r soo kool for setting up to video these repairs.. thas goin the extra extra mile just to do that. May RUclips reward u greatly for it.
Im pretty sure i need todo cab mounts on my 2011 Cascadia, and i strongly suspect the right side.
I screen shotted the part number then read where u said to go my vin number...
What year Cascadia was this u fixed the cab mount on? Ill assume its pre 2019 cause i donr think any of those will need one just yet.
I think the part number u showed will be good for my situation but i will verify by vin.
Curious to know if im guessing right about it and using your part number due to this problem usually occuring in the higher mileage trucks. My shht got 1mil, 70k Lol
Take care man, reply if u get a chance. And Bless up to u. U really help all of us out here.
I mention 2019 but mean the newer series of Cascadia really.. i think they actually started in 2018
Appreciate your support and thank you for watching. You know I cant do it without people like you watching and commenting.Plus feedback is helpful for new ideas.
You are correct the new cascadias started production in 2018 with the new body style.
I believe the one in my video was from a 2016 model. All the older ones im pretty sure had the same part # but there always a curve ball somewhere so its always best to double check.
