Does anyone know where to buy new rubber radiator core support to frame bushings for a 1972 F250?

 

Unless I am missing them also I didn't know there were any. My radiator on my '72 bolts in without any kind of bushings. I've been running mine this way since '91 when I bought it.

In the still cool hours of the night, you can hear chevys rusting away.

 

They are commonly called body mount or cab mount bushings and should come in a kit with bushings and hardware for the entire cab. It is best to replace the bushings at all 6 locations so that everything will fit straight and level again.

While you are at it, pay extra close attention to the left and right center mounts of the cab (under the front of the floor board) for any rust and/or cracking. I am not sure if this is a common problem in the 67-72's, but our '70 F350 truck at work was so bad here that it created a 1 inch gap between the bottom front corner of the door and the fender. We were actually relieved to find this problem; knowing now that it was not a bent frame. After some 1/8" plate and a little welding, she is sitting as straight and as proud as ever.

 

You did miss something, the radiator bolts to the radiator core support (the frame that holds your radiator) which mounts to the frame with rubber bushings that deteriorate after many years.

 

Wnelson,
Thanks for the clarification. The only thing I could think of was the rubber bushings that support the bottom of the radiator on a car. As I read thru the above posts I realized what he was asking about.
