body mounts

[Thumbs75]

This is the front radiator support mount. Is the bolt supposed to be welded to the washer and the sleeve?

 

[sweetk30]

its not welded.

its rusted.

if you got a air hammer you can rattle it and it should fall apart . if not lots of work .

 

[Thumbs75]

Look closer its solid metel I beet it with a 3 pound sledge even bentbit a little its not budging

 

[sweetk30]

then how would the factory install it to the support ?

trust me I live in the rust belt of hell.

if you got heat that will work also but slower. get it glowing red hot and drench it in cold water.

mine were the same way, had to cut them off

I did get one of them, but driving a chisel in between the body and the washer.

 

[Richcz28]

Mine looked like that. I put the nut back on and took an air hammer to it for no joke at least a half hour on the front passenger side. Once it was free I used an impact gun to get the nut back off. There was no way it was coming apart with me and a hammer.

I got the poly ones withe the 1 in blocks from ord

 

[82355]

Yeah, that's why I didn't go with the poly mounts, you don't get the related hardware.

Martin

 

[Thumbs75]

All the hardware is there ist just not the same as stock and you just need to figure out what goes where preferably before you crack that 6 pack.

 

[sweetk30]

Ok sweetk30 I owe u an an apologyit

I would NOT steer you wrong

 

[82355]

All the hardware is there ist just not the same as stock

Even the washers and cups?

Martin

 

[Thumbs75]

No only longer bolts nuts and washers but u need to guess what goes where

 

[82355]

Yeah, that is why I prefer the LMC rubber kit. It comes with EVERYTHING.

Martin

 

[Thumbs75]

Oh yeah and the 4 in the rear are also stuck and wont budge

 

[Richcz28]

They are tack welded to the bed and need to be ground off.

 

[Thumbs75]

I just discoverd that not 5 min ago

 

[Richcz28]

I had to use the air hammer in the bed and hammer down to get mine out after I ground the heads off. I hope yours are not stuck in the sleeves.

 

[Thumbs75]

Im still stuck on the rear most two dont want to use the grinder to much due to matted up carpet padding it starts fire quickly
