72cheyennesuper - you dont really seam too for the idea do ya  good point/s though, i understand.
still have to check out this body mount situation and see if that needs to be addressed before i do any lining anyways

Body mount bushings - you will find 4 bolts behind the back seat, 4 in front of the back seat and one in front of the front seats.There are also 2 at the rad. All bolts need to be lifted through the floor to replace the bushings. If they are like mine they are tack welded to the floor and need to be grinded away. Very time consuming if you have a floor coating you are trying to save. This is work that anyone with a floor jack, sockets, wrenches, a sawsall or cutting torch and a trouble light can do. Check the FAQ about it also. Also don't be fooled by the condition of the bolts. I could easily turn the nuts on the bottom so I thought the bolts could be reused. Once I got them out it I found that they were almost rusted through inside the bushings. You are looking at less than $200 and at most a weekend of work. It is worth it.
