Re: Front body mount removal

Are you talking about the front bolts that are in the radiator support? I use a deep socket 18mm and a break over to hold the top, deep socket 18mm and impact to spin it from the bottom.

You might get a quicker answer checking GM Fullsize. There are more people there that deal with those trucks!

Re: Front body mount removal

So we are talking about the right part to take out then.. If i remember right on how i removed it (with it all still on the truck), i had both front bolts unbolted along with the front two of the cab (i was putting in poly mounts), so i was able to remove the mounts under the radiator support. After the mounts were out, the bolt was able to come out at an angle.

The metal on the bottom of the mount that goes in the frame is a close fit, but it will come out.
