    Could someone that has plugged the hole behind the cab mount please tell me (did you take the cab mount nut and spacer off to get to it better). Thanks for any info. I know it's hard to get to. Found some rust on the back side of my frame behind that hole.

    I’d just spray it down with some fluid film. There are arguments for and against plugging frame holes. There aren’t many arguments for not spraying fluid film on things that are rusting.

    I'm not sure if it's the same hole you're referring to, but:

    Removing the bolt just enough to be out of the way makes it way easier since it’s a snug fit. Takes 2 seconds to pop the floor plastic cover piece, lift up the carpet, undo the bolt. Otherwise your jamming your hand up behind the bolt trying to apply even pressure.
