[QUOTE="Brian, post: 436928, member: 19943"] I just realized I never finished with my body mount problem and how I solved it. Some of the bolts were seized up, some were missing, and some the lower half was rusted off. The missing was easy and I simply ran a tap thru the threads. The rusted off and seized were the bigger issue. I used a 1-1/2 hole saw on the inside and cut the floor out above the mount hole and bolt. Soaked them down with "Free All" . Nest day 1 or 2 came out with vise grips, but for the remaining I wire brushed the bolt head and put an oversize nut over it. Welded it to the bolt and wrenched them right out. Tacked the cut-out floor back in place with a coat of undercote. I used anti-seize on the treads of all the new bolts. Actually I use anti-seize on every nut and bolt I touch.
