GNX Body bushings

I torqued mine at 52 and the two front ones on the rad support at 27...

They should be torqued with the wheel son the ground correct? or does it not matter?

I torqued all mine with the car on axle stands and left the front till the car was back on it's feet and then I aligned the front body clip before torquing the two front mounts

I found a sticky on MonteCarloSS.com on body bushings and at the bottom of page 6 there are some posts about excessive gaps between the rad support and frame rail.

At least I know that I'm not alone.

I'm just going to make sure that the correct bushings are in it, add the bushing to position #5, torque it down and get to working on this car for the next couple of years. When it comes time to bolt down the front clip, I"ll just shim accordingly I guess.
