Thank you for purchasing your new Speedtech aluminum solid body bushing kit. Installing this
product will require the unbolting of your sub frame. Take all necessary precautions whenever
jacking up your vehicle and use safe and sturdy jack stands to support the vehicle whenever it
is off the ground. Be sure to take all other safety precautions required to do the job correctly.

The vehicle should be on a level surface before you start.
1. You will notice the mounts have grooves cut into them, this will identify in what
position they go. The mount with 1 groove is the front radiator support and the 2
groove mounts are for the firewall and the rear mount positions.
2. Leave the vehicle on the ground and unbolt the driver’s side and passenger
side rear bolts. (you may need to apply penetrating fluid to the bolts to remove
them)
3. Once the bolts are out there should be enough room to slip the top mount in
the frame. With the top mount in place, install the interlocking lower mount. Coat
the threads of two 5/8 X 3 ½” bolts with anti seize and loosely thread into the
body.
4. Remove the bolts at the mid and front positions. Place a 4”X4”X12” piece of
wood on a floor jack and center it under the strongest part of the body near the
front of the vehicle. Taking care not to bend the floor pan or body, gently raise the
vehicle. This will cause the front of the frame to droop down. When there is
enough room, remove the old mounts and slip the mid upper mount in place
followed by the front upper mount.
5. Once the mid and front upper mounts are in place gently lower the vehicle
back down until there is no longer a gap between the body mount and frame.
6. Install the mid position lower interlocking mount on both sides, apply anti seize
to the threads of the remaining 5/8” bolts and loosely thread them in. Install the
front lower interlocking mounts with the ½ X 3” bolts and hardware in the same
fashion.
7. As rubber mounts tend to compress and distort over time, ensure that the
hood and fenders line up properly with the body.
8. Cross measure the sub frame to ensure it is straight and square to the body.
Take measurements at the F and G positions on the following diagram. There is
no guarantee the frame was square when you started so do not skip this
important step. When the frame is squared in, torque the bolts to 140 ft lbs.
