Rubber Bushing Front of Cab

[Hwhomes]

One of the rubber bushings the front, hinge part, of the cab of my LMTV, rests on is shot. Looking for a replacement or pair.

I was just showed the easiest way to replace these today, using the cab lift. First you disable the rear cab lock , then loosen the nuts on the bolts till they are at then end. Then lift the cab using the hydro until the nuts are back on the mounts. Remove the nuts and the bolts will lift enough to remove the bushing and replace

I think that'll only work on the passenger side since thats where the ram is. You'll need to use a jack for the drivers side.

There are a few threads on the cab mount. That is an interesting method to do it. I had suggested a while back using a hockey puck cut to size with a hole drilled in it. I have seen this done on civi trucks for motor mounts. The mounts degrade over time. One of these days I can pull a pair off one of my parts trucks and measure them. Can't be that hard to find something similar.

The method I described has been been used by my brother in law on a bunch of trucks for the army. He got it from the TM. Looking at mine I bet a hockey puck would work great. I wonder if you can order a urethane puck. Anyways it would be easy to cast urathan for this.

A hockey puck will transmit alot more noise and vibs from the engine. The upper mounts are available on Ebay and through other vendors, the lower ones are much difficult to find.
