The Ford Barn

On the Frankenwagon the interior is out and I want to install the correct upper washers and flanged insulating rubbers. All bolts, nuts, pads and mounts to frame are visible save for the front of the kick up area on the frame. ( I see no shims.) Apparently the L and R MOUNT nut?, rivet nut? is inside the upper frame. The bolt head and washer is visible.
Has any one removed one of these body to frame bolt? I'm concerned that if, if the nut is not secure I won't be able to TQ the spec. for its inside the frame. Was yours in good condition?
Should I forgo installing the correct washer and insulating rubber washer?
