i am putting a 75 cab on an 85 frame. i noticed the 75 has steel sleeves inside the body bushings. and the 85 does not. how do i remove the sleeve(spacer)? do they press into the body? i am using the 85 bushings. anything else i need to know before i get in deep? also how much does a fully loaded cab weigh? thanks

you need to use body mount bushings specific to the FRAME not the cab.
