thanks for the reply, i got it on - well almost. when i took the frame off a few months ago i popped the cage bolt on the pass. side by the firewall. no amount of pb blaster or heat could break it free and i ended up cutting the bolt out. how would u guys go about fixing this problem? the "cage" itself is up and only one side is welded down. the nut is out but has halt a bolt lodged in it. no hardware store has a similar nut. something tells me a normal nylon threaded bolt just isnt gona do the job

should i try to drill out the bolt? or do u have another option. couldnt find it on fastenals website but there is a store near me maybe they can help

also the directions i have that came with my solid mounts does not say anything about lock washers between the long bolts head and the large washer but every article or diagram online relating to poly mounts like energy suspension products includes lock washers. i picked some up but do u need them i guess is the question.

as always i really appreciate all the help from u guys
