Thinking about replacing my body bushings and have seen soem people post about the nuts thte body bolts go into breaking loose and causing issues. How common is this? Are the nuts really that loose or what?
Also is this more commong on the rear mounts and such?

Anybody also have any pictures of where they had to cut the floor to get to the nut to tac weld it back into place? Does the seat have to be removed to cut the access hole?

Just make sure you start soaking those bolts at least a week in advance with some kind of panther piss. If the nut does indeed break loose your only option is to cut an access hole. Just don't put too much force on the bolts. Try to tighten a little before you loosen. If it doesn't want to participate, keep soaking it down. If it still doesn't break loose, I think your only option is to cringe and pray.
