    Bruh...did you even read his post yesterday where he listed what he was doing?
    Those are body mount bushings. Not that he 'needed' them :D

    OEM body mount bushings are shit. These are super soft and durable. Extremely happy.

    May have provided a fraction of a lift. Nothing noticeable really.

    Yeah, especially with the extreme offset and backspace my wheels have. Pretty much ready now.

    You're on the other side of the country. Do they not allow logic at the grocery store? :boink:

    Is this an affordable mod?

    Because it looks like a lot of work! Taking out a good bit of interior, to do the rear anyway

    Yes it is!!! The entire kit was under $80 IIRC.

    It wasn't THAT bad, but there was a bit of work involved.

    I love small subtle things that make a real difference.

    This is definately one of them.

    I would venture to doubt that. If they're cab mount bushings, they'll be under the cab. Did you guys have to support the cab while you swapped them out? I can see this being a scary moment

    Haha, yeah. Makes sense, "cab" mounts.

    Yeah, was awesome watching the body come off the frame.

    Had to disconnect the steering column when doing the driver's side.
