Help Installing 51' Cab

Hi,
I am trying to mount the cab on my 51' 3100 and have purchased the cab to frame kit from LMC but don't understand where these pieces (in pic) come into play. Also, any idea how to mount the rear part of the cab? This is my first build so I am just trying to figure things out. Thank you!

Re: Help Installing 51' Cab

The pieces pictured are bushings for the rear cab mounts (shackle on the cab that bolts to the frame).

The bushings go in the round part that Donaldo showed.
