I am going to be replacing the body mounts with poly ones from energy suspension. At the same time I am adding a 1 inch body lift using solid aluminum pucks from ORD. I have been spraying the bolts with PBlaster every week for a month now. I am planning on doing the mounts, lift, and I have (what I think) is all new hardware. I have been reading about the body nuts not having good welds on them and breaking, so I am concerned about that. My questions are; 1 I am planning on using a lift to do the body mounts and lift, should I do it the way the instructions say by loosening all bolts and changing 1 side at a time, or do it all at 1 time being the lift can pick the body up the little bit I would need? 2 does anyone know the torque spec for the bolts? 3 Does anyone have any tips, or advice for doing this job? I am very comfortable doing the work, just have never done a body lift before. Thanks in advance
