Around here, the All You Can Carry days don't let you use a hood or trunk lid anymore; none of it can be touching the ground.

OTOH, another chain's been doing "$19.99 Bucket" where you bring in a 5 gallon bucket and if it fits it sells.

Too bad I can't shove truck doors, hoods, or fenders into that bucket ...

Mount a luggage rack on the bucket.

 

What FSM are you reading from?

 

Can't type.

Page 14-29 - 20 pages earlier.

Well, there isn't a 14-49 in the 1993 FSM that I quoted. Did I misremember your year?

No, you’re memory is working perfectly fine. I, indeed, have a ‘93. It’s likely me who is having prefrontal cortex failure. I am using the page counter on the Adobe PDF app on my laptop. I’m kinda getting the feeling you are referring to a different paging scheme.

 

Chapter 14, page 29.

Hrmm ... Foxit Reader will go to page 14-29 cleanly.

Page 648 approx. in Foxit.

OK, I’m with you now. It’s page 648 on Adobe too.

I see the FSM has you disconnecting 90% of the truck and lifting the entire cab off the frame. Geez! Of course that is a “Cab Removal” instruction, not a “Body Mount Replace”. I don’t think they have a section for “Body Mount Replace”.

So if I’m reading that right, the candlestick holder is called a compression isolator spacer??

 

Yep, that's what they call it.

That's where the spec the torque setting; it's part of the big job. We just don't have to do ALL of that job

Merry Christmas to all!

 

I looked up the body mount part #s for my '93. They show only the standard cab. Nothing on my extended cab. What's interesting is they show two different candlestick holders. The core support and rear cab mount share the same part# and the front cab mount has its own part# (I would have guessed the two cab holders would be the same and the core holder different). Furthermore, all three have different part#s for the upper isolator. I believe the ES kit has the same part for the two cab mount upper isolators and the core has its own part#. Looks inconsistent. Hmmm. All three lower isolators share the same part# which would be consistent with the ES kit.

Ralph, I don't know if your '88 is the same as my '93 but this may apply. And it looks like the standard cab has some body mount differences vs the extended cab in terms of body mount part configurations but I cannot tell from the parts catalog.
