I am considering purchasing the Energy suspension body mounts for my 06. What is a safe and easy way to lift the cab enough to replace the mounts?

Ahh I dont have that problem anyway, our roads are different I guess. But I will tell you I would bet that it does fix this issue. The cab feels so much more solid now.

Polyurethane is a harder longer lasting material and is going to be stiffer than the factory ones.
I see this a lot. I put the poly bushings in and hated it and took them out because the ride so was so bad.

There the new updated rear two cushions. If you search there's side by side views of the old ones and the new updated ones. The new ones are like twice the size.
I posted some links above I see you missed but her you go again.

You are more confused than I am. I have seen and read all the threads and I have purchased the mounts. I have them on my truck currently. I was speaking of the intermediate mounts, not the radiator mounts that you spoke of. Go and look at the diagrams and the bill of material. They are not clear at all.

They will list an item number that corresponds to more than one GM part number. I was inquiring to see if others had gone through this. Obviously you haven't and are too lazy to make an educated reply.

And I see you need this answered too.

"His was for an 01-07. I have an 08. I have heard they are the same. Should I chance it? Shouldn't 01-10 be compatible? The web site says no"

GM Part #25875218 does not fit on 01-07 classic
See this is a better site you didn't get one question answered over on Duramaxforum.
