Body mount replacement
Hello All! Would someone please provide me with the link to the step by step body mount and bushing replacement procedure for a C3? I have a 1970 convertible. I tried doing a search and came up with everything but what I was looking for.
Thanks for your help!

It looks as thought the easiest way is the one side at a time approach. What else shoudl I expect to do while I have the body lifted a few inches?
Thanks

Body Mounts
Thanks for the link. It looks as though this is for a rubber bumper car which might be different from my 70 convertible. I heard the convertibles can be tricky. If anyone has details on rubber versus poly and where the best place to purchase the bushings and the mounts that would be great.

I replaced brackets, mounts and got great help on the forum as I went along.
