Rusty Radiator Support Replacement

My 5.0 radiator support is rusty. I want to replace it before it gets worse. I want to get junkyard OAM parts for a better fit. How do I swap the radiator support?

I bought an aftermarket radiator support and had my shop install it for me, so I couldn't tell you exactly how to replace it.

Here's my post on it: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...t-92-f150.html

Be sure to get new bushings, bolts.. got mine from LMC.

It took my shop 5 hours to swap in the new support, even with their experienced mechanics + power tools, etc.
