Body Mount Bushing From Ford Finally Arrived
I have had a driver-side rear body mount bushing on back order from Ford since mid-June and it finally arrived yesterday. I was told that a bunch of parts suppliers have gone out of business in the last year and certain parts are taking forever to get. I paid $21.26 for part #1000155 and $24.23 for #1000154 for the bushings and $3.25 for the bolt (#W706534*S436) and $1.95 for the washer (#N802289*S2)--Ford dealer gave me wholesale prices, due to loooong wait on back order! Today a trusted mechanic of mine is going to attempt the install for the first time at his shop. I gave him a copy of the instructions form Skylla to use and hope he is able to get the job done without a Portapower wedge as several posts have suggested.
