Body lift (can't post this enough)

[Rickb1b]

When doing a body lift, don't forget there is a hole in the frame directly below two of the middle body mounts. Perfect for the sleeves/nuts to fall into the frame. Best to cover this hole with duct tape first. This is the second body lift I've done. One would think I would have learned.

some dont have holes but Tape is your friend. You should let your friends help you when you work. It's Team work man!!!

Great tip, I read about that before I did mine, luckily.

I read it and still lost one in the frame. Damn cheap Home depot duct tape let me down....

I tack welded the nut to the bottom washer when I was installing my 1" body lift mounts. That worked pretty well too!
