missing body bushing

[Big Adam]

I was under my truck cleaning it up after a dirty weekend, and noticed that the cab mount bushing under the drivers area is missing.  Has anyone ever came across this?   It's honestly a little disturbing.

you are talking about the one that's not the main cab mount bushing. off to a side a bit? I noticed mine is missing too.

[Big Adam]

This is the one.

Yep, noticed that too but didn't bother taking it to dealer to see if it's supposed to be missing

Though, looking at this, I think it's just not meant to be there?

Is there one in the same location on the passengers side?

 

The parts schematic list bushing number #1 having both a right and a left.

There is an actual bushing and this one sits just off to the side. that's why I kind of just ignored it since there's one actually there and only driver side has this extra mount which is empty

There is not one that sticks out like that on the passenger side

Its not missing a bushing, the reason its there its an alignment point when it is assembled at the factory and the cab is dropped on the frame going down the line.

I just left the dealership.   Of the 12 trucks I looked under.  All of them had nothing there.  So I'm going with..........its normal.  Odd but normal.

My 2022 Silverado LTD is missing that same bolt and bushing. I am going to ask my dealer about it when I get my heated seats recall completed. I will post an update.

Scroll up to my reply, your dealer is going to tell you the same thing I posted, its an alignment point for when the cab is dropped onto the fame at the factory. Plus this thread is 3 years old.
