body mount hardware?

rwelsh1 · Jul 5, 2016

im trying to figure out what all i need for my body mount hardware since all my factory hardwae was shot i saw that james duff has a kit but i feel like its way over priced for some bolts washers and sleeves, any one know what sizes are needed? and any info on the sleeves? thanks for any input in advanced much appreciated

Sleeve = upper and lower retainers?

LMC truck sells those parts, but they are not cheap either: http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/fr/full.aspx?Page=15

yes the upper and lower retainers i know there expensive thats why i am trying to avoid having to buy them and use a sleeve like the james duff kit shows but do i even need to use such thing? im using prothane poly mounts? can i just get grade 8 bolts and washers an be fine? because the prothanes have some type of metal sleeve molded in but the retainers will still fit inside of the bushings so should i try to find sleeves to fill that gap or see if i can use a larger diameter bolt trying to figure out my option here pretty much trying to go the cheapest route and oem retainers aren't obviously haha

Hi yes you can build bolts.... these are mine that a good friend built and he uses the same set up on all his builds.

cheers

However, better have a good person that knows how to weld to make sure you get a secure fitment.

would he be willing to sell me a set for less than what the james duff kit costs i just want the retainers themselves i can get the rest of the hardware local

Not sure, I will ask him if he is willing and interested in doing this for you. These ones are made for the "energy" body spacers, with stock height no lift kit.

i have prothane poly there really shouldnt be a difference but i you could find out thatd be awesome but i need them asap like yesterday lol thanks man i appreciate it im not running a body lift so no worries even tho i dont think it would matter

One day soon I may be interested and a set of these retainers LOL

I am subscribed

No idea if you guys are still wanting/or are interested in these. What he will need is the inside diameter of the holes to be 100% fitted for your body mounts. so if you know what mounts you are going to be using and / or have them already let me know in PM make and the fronts some are smaller than the body sets. He doesn't want to make the wrong sizes.

No one has inquired so I am guessing this is a dead issue.

cheers

Kinda sad too. I guess it couldn't be that urgent if you never heard back. At least you tried to be helpful and that's what counts. Maybe they went a different route.

I personally am not ready yet, I still have lots to do. I'm subbed tho so hopefully when I'm ready, he'll be available.
