Cab mount bushings
Is it possible to change the cab mount bushings without taking the cab all the way off?
Thanks Larry |

Re: Cab mount bushings
from what I was told by some one who has done it many times, it is best/easier to do them by the side. left side then right side. I havent done it but this is what I was told. use a floor jack and a block of wood to prop the body up.

Re: Cab mount bushings
I have heard that poly squeak unless you grease often, I like the rubber myself.

Re: Cab mount bushings
Well Oldtrux, I went with rubber all around. Front and rear suspension, cab mounts and everything. Some will say poly is great but I am not a fan. I have "0" squeaks period. That is why I did all the bushings, I hate squeaks.
