If I place a level on the cab mounts on the frame will it be level front to back?

I don’t have the cab on the frame currently.

I would try this, since we don't know what year, or which mounts you are referring to.

It is a 2005 chevy 2500hd. I have cut down to a regular cab 6.5 bed. I am asking about the cab mounts that are welded to the frame.

in the pick you can see the level.

can I assume that this location should be level front to back

I think I get what you are asking and you would have to check with the frame completely by itself. The suspension is going to make it not level possibly

Before I cut anything I had a 5* slope to the front. I will have coil overs at each corner so it’s not super critical.
