Back to the body mounts...

#3 and #4 needed spacers between the body and mount. Experimenting a bit, I found #3 needed 3 of the old body washers, roughly .4 inch. Mount 4 needed 1 washer, .13 inch.

Here's mounts 2 and 3:



And here's mounts 4 and 5:



Now I have to see if I have enough of the old washers left for the other side. Also, I'm not entirely happy with the bolt lengths yet, this can be fine tuned later. In any case, I may wind up needing a body lift, at least now all the spacers will be the same height.
