The Frame in my 71 Skylark is rotted badly. I have managed to get hold of a pristine frame from Nevada. All sand blasted ,painted, and ready to be placed under the existing body. I have been able to get all the mount bolts off ( some with snapped heads, buts that's OK...I can deal with their complete removal, once I get the body off the frame). My query is regarding the #4 and #5 mounts, which are different from the others. From underneath all I can see is a rubber portion of the mount covering the hole....No bolt!. The Buick Manual shows these two mounts as not having a bolt with a head, rather, what i assume is just a tapered alignment pin which the rubber mounts slide up over from below, before lowering the body onto the frame. Will these mounts just pop out through the holes as the car is being raised up above the frame, or if not, what needs to be done before lifting off the frame?? Thanks in advance
Those solid rubber mounts will just stay on the frame as you lift the body up. They just pop into the hole on the frame.
