i'm a bit late since you got ur mouts i went and got a 3" exhust, cut it lengthwise so that i could open it and used three 1/4"x1" flat stock with a hole drilled in the center to accept the body bolts. I than used them to pull the lower body mounts down. Used my impact and PB blaster.

Looks like good setup. After I showed my buddy pics of the stuck drift in my earlier post he showed me a setup he had that is much like yours above. He used a big socket instead of the exhaust tubing though. It works well.

i wish i had a socket that big... i started out with the 1/4" flat stock but bent the crap outta that, than moved up to two and again i bent those. finally after 3 1/4" stacks of flat stock they stopped bending enough for me to pull the mounts. they're frustrating little bastards.

For those who have replaced the factory mounts with poly mounts, can you tell me location of the mounts circled? They have a larger register diameter and I have no idea as to which position they belong. Thanks in advance.

Been a loooong time since I have done these Will, but aren't those the rearmost ones? I seen to remember something having a hex shaped register, but I'm thinking that was the core support ones.

X2 on core support. Core support bushings dont have 2 pieces to them like the other body mounts do.
