Who sells the part of the rear cab mounts that are bolted to the frame on my 54 f100? Mine are rusted thin. MF, Macs, and LMC don't list them. May have to make them myself?

Try Mid Fifty. 1-800-252-1956

 

Mid fifty says "not yet available" on the cab mount bases, at least in my catalog. But they do offer an adjustable mount assy. that replaces it and the arms, but the price of $219 seems sort of high.

 

Bob Drake Reproduction may have what you need?

 

I got mine from Dennis Carptner about 15 years ago still going strong. They are a solid metal instead of the original formed hollow metal.

 

No luck yet. Jaye, I don't see it at Dennis Carpenter but my dial up is to slow to download the catalog. Will download it at work, burn a disk and bring it home. I tried the search on the web site and it didn't show it. Russ, I tried Drake, nope.
Thanks

I assume that you need ONLY the mount that bolts to the chassis, not the dogbone that goes to the cab. E Z to make. 1 pc of angle and 1 pc of strap, weld, and drill 2 holes to mount to the frame, and 2 holes for the dogbone bolt to go through. Will be thicker, but will work good. IF not, the adjustable kit will have all that you need and is a far better way.

They the same as '48-52's? If so I think I have some out back.

 

check out hotrods classic truck parts, if rodney doesn't have them, he know where to get them

 

I found one, I'm sure there were a pair in the box but all I can come up with is the one. Let me know if you want it...

 

3Mike, My parts CD shows the 48-52 uses them , BUT on the 158" wheel base truck. Doesn't show them on the pickup model "C".
Charlie, I'll take it. I'll PM you with my email address and we'll work out the details.
Thanks
Bob

 

turnrjr; I just got a set for my 50f1 from LMC. Got them today. All the mounts, bolts, and bog bones. I would call them and see if they are the same. Just my $.02 worth. But worth the try.

 

turnjr , hope i'm not out of line here , I've got two i'm not using ,kind'a rusty but sound and should clean up well ..let me know

 

I found them! When I bought my 54 in 2006 the prev owner who started the build had put a 56 frame under it to replace the cracked original. The old frame also came with the truck. There were no rear cab mounts bolted to the 56 frame. The ones on the 54 are rusted thin. Yesterday I was going thru the boxes of parts that came with the truck and I found the mounts! I had gone through everything before more than once but didn't recognize them I guess. Anyway, sorry to waste your time and thanks anyway Cmoritz, CharlieLed and 3mike6.
