Dave, I truly applaud you for sharing these repairs and updates from a real world example and expectations. Working on a creeper, not a lift, rusted washers or welded bolts when they are not factory welded. Many have never seen a caged or captured nut even though this was a common design practice. Plus tips lifting one side at a time. Just super tips of the more experienced to make their job go well. Thanks Dave!
Our pleasure as always Dean! Thanks for being a loyal watcher!
Yes awesome. So many different get started choose from out there. What would you suggest would be the best kit for my 71 K5 Blazer?
Just did this on my 65 with parts from Brothers. Thanks guys!
Sweet! Good luck with your project!
Thanks for all the information that you give out. There really good Brother's are my go to for my truck projects.
Thanks for watching!
I’m so happy I found this channel
Thanks!
My first ever build was a '66 Mercury Comet and it took 3 yrs to finish whilst figuring stuff out on my own. I'd never done body work or paint until then. I started my new project last week, a 2wd '71 GMC wideside. Your videos have already made my life easier and this project will go much faster. Thanks for the videos.
Our pleasure, thanks for watching!
Changing out my front end bushings, noticed the cab mount, and radiator core, and found this video for how to.... Appreciate they’re vids and business
Thanks for watching!
Really appreciate these videos. My Blazer needs this treatment in the near future.
Good luck with the project!
did my 85 yesterday one came out one broke off and had to cut 2 but im having fun tearing this truck apart
Me to on my 72’ 🙃
Had to do this very thing on my 68C10 ! Cab was lopsided ! Fixed it right up ! 👍
Great video, thanks for sharing! I'm replacing cab bushings today & radiator bushings also! Peace brother
Just did this on my 71 K5 Blazer. The front radiator support ones are the hardest. Get all the rusty bolts off the inner fender and drop it down so I can get my hands in there. Should have took the radiator out would have been a lot easier. Wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Awesome video. The blazers a little different setup but the same principle. Thanks again
Our pleasure!
Thanks guys, keep the videos coming
Thats the plan! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this info,this is helping me with my 1985 c20.😁😁👍👍😊😊
Thanks for this video. I took my truck apart a year ago and with no directions in the box had no clue how they went together.
Right on, thanks for watching!
Thanks been waiting for this video!
Our pleasure!
Awesome videos so helpful
Thanks for watching!
I just did a long comment to a couple of guys about cab mount bushing install. Just if all you are wondering how and why I think I know so much is here is why; started 1967-1972 Chevy/GMC 4X4 truck restoration back in 1979. We've (our shop) done just under 400 of these units. Buying, selling and body-off-frame restoring and engine building. Back to the cab mounts my advice is very simple and clear cut ----do not under any circumstance use anything with the word POLY. My experience with that nasty word was with Energy Suspension company and it's cab bushing kit for 1972 Chevy truck. The composite component is so damn hard and unforgiving that nothing in the truck lined up. Body lines were off, doors wouldn't shut, fender hit the door, and everything --even the damn tailgate hardware jiggled and rattled. We had to take everything out and order out on ebay a stock OEM ---RUBBER---and that's the key word--Rubber-- because of it's ability to let the mount flex and move --the poly was like we put in steel blocks instead. That was our experience. Thx. Jim
Glad I live in road salt free CA. My '69 has front mounts, near the bumper
Thanks for sharing 👏👏
Our pleasure!
Anyone else cringe when the bolts hit the hood? ;-)
Regardless, thanks for the vid.
Yes that's the first thing I noticed. No me gusta.
Normally we'd be far more careful, but even if we're being nice this truck is barely a 20 footer in person (looks great on camera though) and it's about to get painted. Thanks for watching guys!
Yes, that was the first thing I noticed!!
Thanks for these awesome and entertaining video series. I figured you were going to be painting this truck but still cringed every time you set the bolts and mounts on the hood.
Thanks for watching! This truck is actually in the paint booth right now, so those mounts and bolts didn't make a difference!
Thank You
Our pleasure!
Thanks
I had that done for the 72 when I painted cuz the painter recommended it
Very helpful!
You mentioned painting the frame brackets. What should we use? Do you have a video for cleaning and touching up the frame?
We normaly use Rustmort or Rust Reformer amd then paint it with a good enamel paint. We don't have a video on cleaning up the frame.
Very interesting
Do I have to take my fender off on my 1971 caprice just to change my body mount
Well this process work on a 2nd Series 55-59 Chevy truck which I'm almost close to getting late summer season
It would be very similar. We have videos on the 47-54 truck and the 60-66 truck too, so a combination of those resources will definitely get you through the job!
Perhaps you can do a video on dual fuel tanks? I have a 68 c20 with a dual tanks but it is not connected to the switching unit under the floor boards. It was not a manual switch over, but an electric one. I would like to get it working, and if possible hooked the the fuel gauge or have a separate gauge? All 4 of my dualies had twin tanks - 3 were automatic the oldest one had a switch on the dash to check the levels in each tank. Thanks I need to replace the cab mount bushings - they are shot, so this video will be helpful
Great information -But Please Place a Towel on the Hood In the Future - protect the Paint 🤔👍🏻
Can anyone recommend an installer for the body mounts in the Northern CA area, San Jose, or anywhere semi close? Don’t think i would have much success on my own.
We don;t have an installer to recommend, but if you have a floor jack and basic hand tools you can probably get this done in a few hours yourself.
"you stay tuned...ya hear"
Looks easy but the kit I ordered from Brothers Truck didn't have crush sleeves. Any help with how long and the size material to use for the front and back crush sleeve would be very helpful. The existing rear sleeves on my truck are huge and appear to extend from the top of the bushing on top through the bottom bushing. I'll need to jack up the rear cab about 3.5 inches to remove that from the top. I'll need to jack up the entire cab (Both sides, front and back) to remove them. Or, would you recommend using the existing sleeves on the rear with the new bushings/cushions?
You definitely can use the old sleeve if you want. Our sleeves are the same length as the originals were. Or, contact our shop and we'll get some sleeves in the mail for you, our older sets did not include the sleeves.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV Thank you. The back sleeves were in good shape so I used them. The front mount is difficult to remove. The bushings are worn so bad I could pull them out with pliers. However, I can't get the bolts/sleeves out which seem to be one piece like the rear sleeves were. The bolt turns as well as the sleeve but it won't come out through the floor.
@@russberry9200 more than likely they're just rusted in like ours were. Bang on them with a hammer and see if you can bust em loose
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV Tried that. The bolt and sleeve turn easily but won't come out. I tried hitting the bottom of the bolt with a sledge hammer. (Really hard)and jacked it up from the bottom of the bolt with a hydraulic jack and it lifted the cab up. It won't come loose. I might need to cut the old bolt/sleeve assembly out and use the new bolts that came in my kit from BT? But I then will need the new crush sleeves. I'll pay for them to be overnighted.
@@russberry9200 Call the shop today and let us get a set on the way for you. This way regardless of if you need them or not they'll be there. Ask for Alex, tell him the TH-cam studio sent you 800-977-2767
Is the cab brushing Mount set up on a 1985 c20 Long bed custom deluxe and a 1986 GMC Sierra high Sierra Long bed regular cab
Are they both 3/4 ton?
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV no first truck is a 3/4 ton Long bed and the second truck is a 1/2 ton Long bed
@@kenworthcustomlogisticstru8096 The body mounts will be different between the two of them then.
👍well that don't look too bad.
Thanks Darren!
what bushings do i need for bed ?
The bef just uses thin rubber pads. You can find them on our website www.brotherstrucks.com
What wheels are those.....very cool
Not 100% sure. This was a customers truck so we don't have the details
If this guy isn't your go to, for c-10 know-how, you're doing it wrong!
Hey Dave. How can I fix a Ford truck? 😂
Sell it and buy a good chevy truck. 🤪
Chevy emblems
Not on the paint!
I just bought this kit, and the parts are nothing like in your video. The mounts are all the same. No hard washer in one. Maybe update your video. Kinda disappointing 😢
تتكلم اكثر من الحاجة المطلوبة ...يبدو انكم متعطشين للكلام لكونهم تعيشون وحيدين لا صاحب ولا خليل او صديق
The paint tho... I'm cringing.
