Thanks--I will try to find B Man's thread. As I state above, when I replaced body mounts the cages were rusted out and I cut holes in the trunk again to gain access--which would make a big mess. I would like to avoid if I can.. Then re-assembled using just nuts and lock washers. I would have to cut open trunk access to get to rear body mount nuts loosened...

I wonder if I cut trunk open again I could lift body enough to get this done? At this point with the rear body mount still tight (the rest loose) I can get body up about 3/4" which is not enough.
