Has anyone else done this? Any comments or concerns? ~$50 for new rubber mounts (not planning on poly) and a couple hours sounds too easy.

How do the body lines/gaps look @ the bumpers?

Is core support relocation needed?

Has anyone used rubber and is ride the same? In my case ill bet it improves as the originals are likely hard as a rock now.

x2. Who has already done this? I'm thinking about trying on my Avalanche.

I'd love to see photos of the tailgate-back bumper and front bumper-grill after doing this. I'd love to do this, just concerned about fitment/clearance issues.

The gaps are tightened up at the bumpers and it looks much nicer without the huge gap WITH NO CLEARENCE PROBLEMS. The core support does not need to be relocated. Now, if your bushings are already worn the body won't be lowered as much due to the old worn bushings.

I made this write-up as thorough and straight forward as possible. This is VERY easy to do, no gimmicks. Just follow the tutorial step by step...

I did this 4 years ago and haven't had any problems. I used poly bushings and I don't have any squeaks either.
