Default body mounts

this is what it looks like when your front body mount disintegrates and disappears.

easy access, these are the two at the very front of the frame rails, you can see them in front of your front tires (all that junk on the pic has been hosed off). i think this explains why my front end is uneven, with the pass side torsion bar cranked up all the way. find out tomorrow when they replace it.

Geez, what would cause such deterioration in a such a short amount of time? Not like the H2 is 10 years old.

junk parts is my guess. first model year, first run with a new shape, crappy rubber. nobody makes polyurethane for these yet, so i'll have to go with stock. if i get another 45k out of them, i'll be ok. it's not like the climate here is detrimental to it.
