Re: Squaring up cab
On the frame? Or the sheet metal itself?

Re: Squaring up cab
Since the doors are adjustable they can be hung and the cab can still be tweaked.
If the frame is spot on you could level and confirm the chassis is square, then mount the body rigid to the frame without the rubber isolators and confirm the bolts are centered in the bores of the cab and the frame. (will need to build some sleeves. Simple job if you have access to a lathe) Once frame is bolted and aligned with the chassis you could then hang and gap the doors. once they are perfect weld in the firewall. and you should be golden.
