Default Trouble

Body lift trouble, I snapped the 2 heads off the bolts closest to the front bumper, what can I do? Can I still jack up body and pound out the bolts! Help needed!

The sleeves are molded into the cab bushings. You will still be able to loft the cab as long as the bolt head broke off. It may require the purchase of new cab bushings. Which ones did the bolts break of on?

I got Em all out, I was able to put a reach around that sleeve after I jacked the cab and took out the rubber bushing
