Re: stock look body mount chop

has anyone just chopped off the end of the body mount and left it like that? is it definitely unsafe?

I might do the quick steel thing. What brand should I use...
Stig--I havent boxed mine yet, but plan to in the future. there is a respected offroad shop near me that has been doing "the chop" for years on tacomas/etc and never boxes them in. I have been wheeling with them unboxed and have not noticed any problems. Structurally, it should be OK without boxing. But I'm not crazy about the fact that the rubber bushing is now totally exposed to any crap that can be thrown up from the tires/road. I'm going to box them for a little added protection and peace of mind, although it is probably fine without.
