[QUOTE="Longracing25, post: 1042504, member: 74962"] Stock bushings. you mean polythane bushings? Stock bushings will work with lift bolts. The polythane bushings are a littel taller,...but the new bolts are long enough. Not too mention the bottom metal piece it threads into...has a fairly long threaded inside. I started back on the body lift tonight. Holy crap, the radiator bushings(A) were pretty much gone, the ones under the gas pedal (B) were mostly gone And factory loctite made it a bitch and a half. I had to heat probably 5 times with torch for those to come out.The bushing behind seat(C) ALSO has loctite and was just as bad a bitch as the one under gas pedal(B)...and had to heat probably 5 times. I had to also use vise grips on (B) and (C). Now oddly enough,.....but OMFG...the ones behind the rear seat,...in the storage compartment (position D)...I heated those ONCE,.. AND NO VISE GRIPS WERE NEEDED. I just got driver side raised with jack, its 10:00p,...i'll finish tomorrow. Beware,.......I ALSO JUST WENT THRU WIFES RANT..."WHAT THE F***,...HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO GET IN THAT!"...LOL. I'm sure i'm not the first. [/QUOTE]
