Default Re: Rear Subframe Bushing - paper type insulator?

The tape was for the water test and was sticky side up against the floor pan. The idea that the bushings were somehow taped up is an old wives tale as far as I know. Why would you tape a body bushing up side down when all you need to do is set it on the frame.
