The small-block stands were also used in the '73-'79 trucks with 351M/400 engines and will work just fine for swapping a small-block into an earlier truck.

I know i cant find any withthose or engine removed from a pick n pull and they wont do it hopin someone has what i need

 

i will sell you a set from a 351m out of a 77

 

Well the main point is you didn't say your looking for 73-79 351M/400 motor perches Not everyone knows they will work for what your trying to do .. Now you got a lead on what you want

 

How much and do you have a pic of them that was the year they supposedly change the crossmember and such

 

The perches need to be from a 2wd truck .. Is your truck 2wd or 4wd ?
About the crossmember

Quote:

IMPORTANT: There's a rumor floating around that Ford redesigned the front crossmember for the '77½ through '79 2WD trucks, which also meant the engine perches had to be redesigned, so these trucks couldn't be used as engine perch donors for earlier trucks. However, while there were redesigns on stands in '77½, it wasn't due to a change in the crossmember. (In fact, '79 6-cylinder trucks use a D4TZ (left) and a C5TZ (right) stand. That means one stand never changed from inception!) The '79 trucks use a D6TZ-5019-B frame front crossmember which is also the replacement for '73-'78 and fits all F100/F150/F250 and F350 2WD with Twin I-beams.

 

Read the revision part second line. Thats why i stated crossmembers and SUCH

 

Whatever ! It had nothing to do with the crossmember .. You wanted help and you got help but not from your initial post BTW

 

these are from a 4x4 guess

they are no good for you.

 

i may have a set of them in 2wd version tho!

 

I need 2wd if you got em

 

If your 1965 F100 is 2WD:

SAME engine supports (aka towers/stands perches): 1969/79 F100 302 / 1975/79 F150 302 / 1977/79 F100/350 351M/400 2WD
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
redroad: 1977 1/2 only refers to F250 4WD's. The last High Boy was assembled before serial number Y20,001, the first non High Boy was assembled from serial number Y20,001.

This serial number occurred in February 1977, which is the middle (77 1/2 or 77.5) of the model year run.

Engine sizes have nothing to do with front cross members. Plus, Ford is in-famous for replacing/updating 10's of 1000's of part numbers EVERY YEAR!

D6TZ-5019-B (replaced C5TZ-5019-A) .. Front Cross Member: 1965/79 F100/250 2WD / 1975/79 F150 2WD / 1976/79 F350.

C7TZ-5019-B .. Front Cross Member: 1967/76 F250 4WD; 1977 F250 4WD before serial number Y20,001.

D7TZ-5019-B .. Front Cross Member: 1977 F250 4WD from serial number Y20,001; 1978/79 F250 4WD / 1978/79 F150 4WD Super Cab (has front leaf springs).
