Couldn't get to it yet but thanks for the additional replies! So if worse comes to worse I cut the head of the bolt off and remove what's left from the top? Or when you squish it then the shaft is exposed and cut that. Then wait for new bushings to come in. Luckily still have other wheels to use at least if downtime. Ok, onward will keep this updated hopefully with success! Heading to dealer to pickup gas tank skid next.

 

Guys guys guys - Success!

Thank you for the help! Got more questions but all good now.

 

My bushings/mounts were ok after a bit of vice persuasion and a small sledge.

 

Glad it worked out for you.

 

Me too

I buggered up the bed stripe install in the wind today !#$#@T!% both freaking sides. Both. @!#R$#&% No good, peel off, throw in garbage can.

 

AHH that sux. Thats why I paid to have mine installed by a company that does vehicle wraps. They know what they are doing. I knew I would bugger mine up if I tried myself. One thing I saw they did was spray plenty of soapy water both on the bedside and the decal.

 

Received and installed the Gibson single exhaust today 2.5" to 3" at the muffler (which was much larger than I thought, round offset in/out). Took couple hours at most. Quiet enough but does rumble at idle. Sounds like a little motorboat haha! Makes me very mindful of the throttle now.

4.56's would be very nice to help spin the motor up.
