Now the cab.....they dont come off the just make this rubber catching sound....any help?

 

I had it happen on one of my cab mounts for my body lift. The only alternative we had that worked was drilling out the bolt, and then re-threading the hole.

 

damn how long that take?

 

Don't remember too well, that weekend is all a blur. It shouldn't take more than a couple of hours.

 

We figured out what thread the bolt was, went to Sears and bought a thread tapping set, and the set listed which drill bit to use for the bolt.

 

thanks man......this is getting fusterating....i started to drill the head off

 

no problem, good luck with it.

 

Finally Bed is Done....pops came home and Muscle-F*#$ed it off....now to the cab!

 

Cab is not comming off....making some weird rubber catching sound.....any help?

 

Probably spinning the nuts on the bottom of the bolts. Take a huge set of channel locks and grab ahold of it while someone tries to break it loose.

 

yeah it aint working too good

 

Hopefully someone else can get on and tell ya what they did. Ranger1 did something else.

I have some BIGASS channelocks and they worked fine for me.

 

haha send em this way.....i quit for tonight...i might just pay someone to do the front of it...

 

Are you using an impact? I used my 1/2" matco impact and I only had to hold one of those nut things on the bottom of the truck, and thats because I used my 3/8" impact on it first...it turned it too slow.

 

yeah impact did squat........tomorrow were putting the front back together mius bumper...and sending it to the 4wd shop for them to do the front

 

ah man don't do that, Just sit underneath the truck and have everyone brainstorm, all you have to do is figure out how to hold it from spinning and they'll come out peice of cake, and there's only 4 since yours is a reg cab.

Also if ya don't mind me asking, I'm taking my body lift off, could I have your stock hardware? I lost all of my stock bolts.

 

yeah sure ....you pay shipping though

 

lemme know how much to 30127

 

man, i told ya!!

"but mines a lot newer" :P :P

On mine, i didnt really have any troubles. I used an impact up top, and my bro held a socket to the nut on the underside. And for the front ones i just used a pair of visegrips, and it came loose too.

 

you ****! lol....yeah im just going to send it off to be done.....hey im tired of messing with it.......ill get you a price soon

 

WORKING ON THIS LIFT RIGHT NOW...SHOP was Pissing me off so i got it back,....Got some Channel Locks that open to 1ft...So i got 4 more bolts to go and im FREE!!!....How did the Radiator thing work?...also the front two bolts didnt drop out...how do you get em out?
