Larry wanted me to ask how tight to torque down the body mounts on his Jeep.

I told him "good and snug" but that wasn't good enough. 🙄

-- Body Mounts "lift"
-- Radiator to frame 35 flbs
-- Main floor to frame 50 flbs
-- Rear floor to frame 35 flbs

I used to wheel a lot. . .

You've got skillz. I (briefly) tried to google it, but didn't come up with a whole lot. Did you have that filed away in your brain somewhere?

No, they are for a TJ. But, I doubt it makes much difference. Tell him to just "snug them up." 😀

The body mounts on my Jeep are impacted on. I got tired of them coming loose. I would estimate that they are somewhere in the 200 foot pound area 😯
