REMOVAL Spray all nuts to be removed generously with your favorite rust buster. Important: Be sure on disassembly to note the quantity and positions of any shims that may have been inserted for body alignment. These shims will have to be reused to insure proper body alignment. 1. Remove bolts of mounts from inside of cab. Remove bolts from one side at a time, leave other side loose. Remember: Only raise body high enough to remove & replace mounts. Always watch the fan shroud for sufficient clearance when raising the body. When jacking the body use a long enough 2X4 or 4X4 for maximum support. Never put jack directly on body panels. 2. The body mounts are pressed together by a flair fit from the factory. A simple “puller” assembly can be made with a metal tubing and some metal washers (not supplied). (See pic). Placing the OEM bolt thru the “puller” assembly and tightening it will free the body mounts from the frame. 3. Remove OEM bushings. 4. Reinstall with new bushings supplied. 5. Tighten all bolts to factory specifications.
