body mounting

I have the body off the frame to finish up the body and paint work. When I go to reassembly the body to the frame I was planning on replacing all the body mounting rubbers with new. Do any of you delete the rubber to have a more solid connection between the body and the frame? What are the disadvantages other than noise? Since I plan on using some of my original mounting points as roll cage pick up points, I don't think I should be using the rubber pads in these areas. If that is the case, is there any reason to use them anywhere else?

Thanks,

Greg
 
I'm confused........does the body contribute to the stiffness of the frame?

Is there subframes or is this a full frame.?

"""""""Since I plan on using some of my original mounting points """"""

define 'original mounting points'

""""""as roll cage pick up points""""""

are 'points' on the body or on the frame?
