Body Mount Bushing Install - now with pictures! And a video too!!!

Does anyone know if they replace these bolts and bushings when the frame recall is done?

 

i would say they would, or if they are fine then they would reuse them.
mine all looked like new after 160k miles.

 

Mine were reused.

 

This is my next project on the truck I plan to flip mounts to get extra body lift as well. IF I decide to add a 1" body lift on top will factory bolts still be long enough? I know body lifts are a bad subject here but my tires are getting worn and plan to move up to 35"s when they need replaced. Thought an extra inch wouldn't hurt..........no puns!

 

A body lift will replace the bushings. Do your research on body lifts. You don't have to go very high before it becomes a fair bit of extra work.

Thread revival - does anyone know if the part number

$114 8.4109R Body Mount Set-Reg, Access & Dbl Cab

8.4109R or G work on a 2015?

I called energy suspension and they weren't sure if the body mounts were the same on the 2013 vs 2015.

 

Same

 

Thanks!!

 

SUB for later use

 

Thanks brother. Even though energy suspension listed this part number through 2013 - it worked on my 2015 just like you said. I ever find myself in Hawaii I owe you a cold one.

 

Sub'd for near future.

 

Had mine on for about 5 months now, planing on fliping them to raise the body because new bigger tires will rub on the front
How much height is gained by flipping?

 

If they're already in and you're just flipping them, you'll gain 1/2"

 

Wonder if its worth it. They have been quiet i might just wake up the squeaky beast haha

 

They're only noisy if you over torque the bolts.

 

Do i have to flip the "radiator support" bushings aswell if i do this?

 

I seam to have run into a shitty situation while attempting to swap out my body mount bushings.

- I removed everything for the Rear-Driver side bushing no problem. (Cab mount/bushing, Cab mounting bolt, Frame bracket bolts)
- Little resistance, but to be expected for the undercoating/rust build-up.
- I was in the process of removing the Front-Driver side, when I stripped one of the Frame Bracket Bolts (See picture below for which one I am mentioning)

It is the one located closest to the frame:

I am curious what my options are to get this out. Will i need to try and cut it off? Will I have to remove all mounts and lift the cab (which will be almost impossible for me to do at the moment)

Has anyone been stuck in this situation before and had a trick to remove this bolt? Any and all help would be appreciated as I am baffled at how I will remove this.

Cheers,
Tim

 

Did you get it to break loose before it got stripped?
I would be spraying penetrant in there (pb blaster) often to keep it soaking while trying to cone up with a plan
