one of the body bushing supports on my body are rusted through to the point where the bushing is ussless i guess a new plate would have to be welded in to support the new bushings? its the one on the front near the battery tray anyone have any idea of where i could get it done what it should cost what i should do? =/
allso should i take on replaceing the body bushings myself? im a technican in a shop so i have my own lift to work on if i wanted too
-thanks
 
I just recently did my bushings, my number 7 was rusted through.
I just fabricated a couple of plates and brackets and it is holding up excellent:D

What a differance in ride quality..

Do it yourself. Nice and slow.... It's worth it.

It sounds like you have a problem that stems from battery acid that had spilled onto the core support rather than just rust?

In either case, seems like a good solution would be to replace the core support.
