I was going to get started by myself installing the JKS 1.25 BL on my jeep, went under it, and noticed 2 of the rear body mounts, the ones between the gas tank and rear shock are really hard to get to. Once i PB blaster the f@#%out of them, and get them loose, anyone have any hints as to how to get the new bigger body puck up in there??
It seems as though you need to slip them in, like from under the inner rear fender wells??
Please help!

When I put mine in, I raised the body enough to slip the puck between the body and frame rails through the inner fender wells just like you said.

Ditto. Going in from underneath won't work with the ribs in the tub. Go in from side throught the wheel well.

Ok, it should work...any tricks to get up there with enough leverage to get that bolt loose???
It might be tough on mine being 8 years old..

I got my bolts off from underneath using a couple of universal joints and extenisons on the socket driver and a liberal application of PB Blaster. I'd start with the PB Blaster a couple of days ahead of time. Apply liberally. The bolts should only be torqued to 25-30 lbs.
