Re: Rusty nuts and sloppy holes
I'll bet there was no rattling there.
Welcome to the board.

Re: Rusty nuts and sloppy holes
Yep, bought the truck last week. The rear shocks were shot and after further inspection found all that mess. A big cheater bar and some heat, I won. Not a biggy, it's always interesting going through a vehicle for the first time.

Re: Rusty nuts and sloppy holes
That's the thing, nothing was rattling but the rear end was a little unruly on bumpy dirt roads

Re: Rusty nuts and sloppy holes
Thought you were talking about some old farts at a mixed couples shuffle board party.

We are talking about rear shock mounts, right?

Re: Rusty nuts and sloppy holes
You should be able to find a decent set of mounts in the for sale section. I would go with a new set of U holds and nuts.
