I figured id post this and mybe one of you might have a clue what ive broken.

The old lady has a 2006 LE armada with the tow package... well i broke my benz and the roll back company wanted $190 to tow it 40 miles. Needless to say i passed on that screwing considering i have car trailer. So I put the G (about 6K lbs) on the car trailer(2500-3000K pounds.) Hooked it up to the back of the armada started it up and watched the back end lift up.. I had no idea it had air ride

Long story short it does grate pulling the load, set the cruise at 70 and it was show 11 mpg average and like 5 up hill

......

Well a few days later the wife is like something is popping in the car. I take it for a drive and sure nuff sounds like loose bolts. Take to the dealer, and they said " it has a stripped body mount, we orderd mount, bolt, washer, nuts, etc. etc."

My question is how does this "body mount" strip out? and have anyof you heard of this ?

A lot of these reviews are on the amount of re-calls, failures, etc. When the Titan first came out it had it's fair share of problems and I think they are still haunting them. I'm trying to figure out how they rate a Subaru Baja as a pick-up truck...............

KERR, I'm sure the body mount is just coincidence considering the tow pkg mounts to the frame and wouldn't really have anything to do with the body. Which body mount was it?

Towing anything would not have messed anything up...Just a coincidence.
