Hey everybody,
Where are the best points to jack up the body as I replace the body mount cushions on my '69 Malibu? Any advice on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brawley :confused:

You can place a 2x4 under any of the body braces between the jack, once the body mount bolts are out. You are going to do one side at a time I take it. Use jack stands or blocks between the body and frame while you are working in there.
Also, while you have the body jacked up off the frame it is a good time to replace any brake lines or fuel lines. The fuel lines are difficult but the brake lines are pretty easy.
