Missing Nuts???

I was looking under my truck to see what version of exhaust i had (6/04 build date but early style) and there were some studs that mount the frame to the body that had no nuts on it!!! I was wondering if this was correct or if Ford took them off to relieve my vibration issues. The studs are directly below the center brace between the doors. I can post pictures if needed.. I dont want my cab to go flying off at 70 mph. take a look and let me know if you are missing your nuts too...

since everyone seems to think this is a joke, i went ahead and looked at mine build 6/04, the gusseted brackets that are lined up betweent he doors and behind the rear door have a bolt on each side of the body bushing. 3 of them have a bolt going down from the cab into the bushing, probably where you think there is a nut missing. i think the metal plate that clamps up on the bushing is the nut, so i wouldnt worry about it. if im wrong take a pic of what youre talking about

Sounds like warranty work. Take it in to Ford and have them check your nuts

I do ---> nuts fall off. it happens really quick. the two seem to be connected is some cosmic way.
