Wanted 73-87 4wd motor mount frame stands/towers and core support mounts

[tonytheplumber]

As the title says, I'm looking for the bolt-in motor mount stands. Not the motor mounts, just the stands for a factory 4x4 frame. I unbolted mine and began blasting mine to prepare for paint or powder coat and one of them is rotted badly enough to be perforated in one area.

Also looking for the front most body mount brackets. These are the mount brackets riveted to the frame and the front spring mounts. Once again, mine are thin due to rust.

As you can guess, I'm looking for some clean items, not scaly, pitted nasty ones like I already have. There are some frame stands on Ebay, but I figured I'd check with you guys first.

I have scrapped so many of these.
I think I might have kept one set because every time I don't someone needs them.
Let me check.

Thank you! Please let me know.

 

[rockin kw]

Thank you! Please let me know.

Do you want the spring mount and brace also or just the boby mount. These look solid. Just some slight surface rust.

I suppose if you’re already knocking rivets off, I’m sure your braces and mounts are in better condition than mine. I’m seriously jealous of the condition of that frame. Midwest road salt is a bitch!
Please let me know the cost and I’ll send it via PayPal if that’s ok with you??
And THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

I guess I shouldn't take pictures of my clean frames, you probably would cry

The struggle is real in this part of the country!

I really don’t know. There are a couple pairs of towers on eBay for $60 shipped. No body mounts on there for comparison though.

Sorry I have not got back to you. Still need everything. Had some family stuff come up and been out of town on a job. One of the spring mounts is broken. But the rest of everything is good. Let me know. Thanks

Yes, still need. Please keep me posted and let me know how much and where to send it

Got the parts off. One of the body mounts has a corner that was flattened out when someone cut the frame rails off. Just wanted to be sure you wanted it. Looks like it just took off the edge. Did not go through

Just so both of you guys are aware, the mounts rockin kw is showing is different than the OP's mounts. The OP needs mounts from 73-80 and rockin kw's mounts are 81-87 which means the body mount bushings are totally different on both.

But if tonytheplumber wants to make it work then have at it. I'm just making a heads up to prevent headaches.

I was not aware of the difference. Is it just a body bushing difference? If so, can I use the 81-87 bushings for the 77 core support?

That doesn't bother me. If I want to build it up with MIG wire and dress it up, that's what I may do.
I am curious to see what the difference is that #thatK30guy is speaking of with the body mount. If it's only a bushing difference, I'm good.
