What's the trouble, besides the gas tank being in the way?

Cab Mounts

Thanks. I am on the right side of the cab, so the fuel tank is not an issue { will remove it if need be}. Front mount was easy to remove, the center I cut the lower bushing out and used a torch and slide hammer to pull lower part of hardware apart. On the rear there is very little room to do this. I am considering threading a bolt into the bushing nut to use a impact hammer on the top and at the same time using a impact wrench on the nut on the bottom. If this doesn't work maybe I can cut the bottom bushing off and use a torch. TIGHT SPACE ON THIS.

Any suggestions or advice will be welcome.

Also does anyone know where I can purchase new hardware for these bushings?

Thanks
