I like that idea alot better than spending $1600. I think if it come to that and there was no other way around it. She might have to go....

Thanks for the clarification, I was beginning to wonder. I took a look and it appears the bolt is on the inside floorboard. If I go the lube route,what do I lube? For $92 dollars a corner I may try that providing it will not cost me $1600

I can just picture your ex, held together by duct tape. Sorry, but I'm sure there are a few of us on this forum that have pride of ownership.

Wow, you guys are ruthless. I was just trying to save some people some time and money which is the bulk of what this forum is about. There is no way I would pay a dealer big bucks to remove the cab and put new mounts in for a stupid squeak.

Thanks for the replies, I had no idea it would get so heated. As far as the money views its not the issue. Taking it to a dealer and having them rape me is the issue. If its something I can do for myself with a littoral grease and some labor, that's what I'm talking about. If not if not I am going to shop around it attempt it myself. Paying 1600 to a stealership to fix something that may or may not be the problem is out if the question. Thanks guys

From what I've read, if you go the "grease" route, the creaks will come back after a few months. Also, there are no aftermarket mounts. Not having to pay for OEM parts would reduce the price of the mounts quite a bit.
