Seeking another elusive part for the stock truck build .Any one have or can locate part # 18481 located on page 605 of the FORD Chassis Parts Catalog ? It is a looped end bracket that holds the heater hose to the RF inner fender panel. Thanks,. Denny

 

I don't know if this is what you are looking for but I found a listing on National Parts Depot # F-18481-1. Stainless. Hope it helps. , Doug.

 

It's a real simple strap. I'll check my spare inner fenders, but these usually get torn up trying to get the fender bolts out. The strap's hole is square as I recall?

 

The original number is 7RA 18481. Obsoleted by the time of the 1964 edition. Two are listed as being fitted, but I don't see why two were needed on a V8. No question two would be needed on a 215 like mine. Parts Voice doesn't show any squirreled away by vendors. I have two, and as you can see in the pictures it wouldn't be any task to fabricate them. I can measure, etc, if it'd help. Stu

 

Sorry my info was way off. I didn't know what it looked like. Why can't you use one of the spark plug wir holders?

 

Ive probably got an extra one floating around here somewhere if you havent found one yet.
Let me know if you still need one.
Josh

 

Josh , that would be great .Thanks

 

If this will work for you ill get it sent off.
Josh

 

Josh , truckdog has one on the way . Thanks for your effort . Would not want to accept it from you when some one else may need it .It is under stood this attaches to a head bolt . If so which one ? The angle seems to be off to bolt to the inner fender . Thanks , Denny

 

I didnt compare to one on a truck. Guess i better go look at a parts truck or two so o can see the difference from this bracket compared to the inner fender one.
Im not sure which headbolt this would have gone under.
Ill have to take a look at some other trucks.

Glad you found one.

Cheers

 

Mike a.k.a. Rimrock sent one .It arrived today at 6 pm. & was media blasted & primed by 6:30 .Paint wed. & install thur. Will post a pic. Truckdog sent a traced pattern of one .Thanks for every ones help .DEnny

 

Josh , did you get a chance to eye ball a truck to see where the heater hose support bracket attaches ? By the angle on the one end am leaning towards a head bolt or maybe the rear water neck bolt .. It is ready to bolt on Thanks , Denny
