Body mount bushing replacement

I am going to replace the 4 large rubber bushings between the k member and frame as they are loose and the bolts won't tighten down any more. The car seems to wander and jump around a lot on rough roads. Runs and tracks good on smooth roads. It looks to be a pretty simple process. Remove the bolts on one side of the car, raise the body a little and switch them. Anything I should be aware of? Thanks! - Roger

I have a 72 so no bushings on the k frame , but from what i have read the solid isolators are the way to go for better handling. http://www.firmfeel.com/bodymnts_b3.htm  They have the ones for the cross member too. http://www.firmfeel.com/B3%20xmember%20mts.htm

Thanks for that. I didn't realize they came as solid ones. I already have the urethane mounts so I'll probably use them. Came with directions. Looks as simple as I expected.

The 73 and newer B body "K" frames are commonly rusted out in the area where the bushings sit.
