I wonder if, after I replace the burb/panel bed mounts, use one of the thin 1/4" pickup rubber bed bushings and put it between the reinforcement strip cross sill and the frame?

Also, I suppose that I will most likely have to replace ALL of my body bushings when replacing the bed mount bushings, as on a panel/burb, I'm sure this would create problems.. bummer. One project always turns into ten!
