Chassis-to-Body

**skidmarkharvey** · April 12th, 2016 11:16 AM

Hi. I've been bugged by a metal to metal noise on my Crosswind for quite some time now. I just found out what it was just a few minutes earlier, it was the bolt connecting the body to the chassis, the one with the bushing.

I think it has to be replaced already as it looks worn out and is already banking/slanting forward.

The big question is, is there a DIY to this? I have my reservations on the idea of going to the Isuzu casa as I have had a lot of issues with them over the years and I am based in Tacloban City. Hope there's a DIY fix for this.

Help please gurus!

Here's a pic:

Thanks!

Can you see the screws? And do you have wrenches to reach them?

If yes, then all you need to do is to try to loosen the screws...

If replacement bushings are available, you should be able to replace them... Just use a jack to lift the body away from the chassis...

Be careful not to lift it too much as it might push the car's flooring up.
