Topic: changing body bushings

[jsrusse11]

my body bushings on my 88 pickup are pretty shot.  i want to change them out and i have access to a forklift.  what would be the easiest way to do this?  what all is involved in this and where is the best place to go for the bushings?  this is also going a future crawler, would it be worth putting a small body lift on it now since i'm doing it?

Th bushings are really easy to swap out, just unbolt a complete side at a time and loosen the opposite side a couple of turns.  Dont lift it up any higher than absolutely necissary as you could damage things such as the floor board and the shifter will interfear with the floor if lifted too high.  Also be sure to pull the bolts that hold the brake lines to the frame as they can be damaged as well.
