Can someone please enlighten me as to how you're suppose to get these to work? The factory body mount for thr rear bed (x 4) has a washer fused to the rubber so you can bolt it to the rear bed support channel. The Daystar poly bushing is just a disc.

According to the instructions it simply goes between the frame and body. Incase you didn't get a copy of the instructions, you can find them here.
 
What year is your truck? I just finished doing this on my '79. The daystar kit is barely usable - I ended up reusing a lower rear mounts on mine for one side, and purchased a new OEM one for the other, both front and back. My kit came with separate washers that go with the bushings.

This thread also talks about the problems with fitment with the later model kit:

If I had to do it again I would save my pennies and just buy the still available OEM bushings.
