Body Mount Modification Instructions

1. If you are planning on running a 35x12.50, tire or a rim that is wider than 8” the body mount will need to be trimmed

to keep the tire from rubbing.

2. Working from the driver side, mark the body mount 5 1/4” from the face of the frame. Mark 1” from the back end of

the mount back as shown in PHOTO 51.

3. Use a sawzall, or cutoff wheel and cut the marked area from the mount. Next sand and clean the area on the mount.

Paint area to halt rusting. If you wish to cap the mount, you can grind the excess metal off the piece that was cut off
to fit back into place. See PHOTO 52.

4. If welding cap, take care not to heat the area excessively. Too much heat could damage the body mount bushing.

Weld in and paint after it has cooled.

5. Repeat on the opposite side.
