I need two radiator support pads for 1959 4X4. The ones that came off are 2.5 X 2.5 inch and may have been 1/2 inch thick.
I don't find any replacements on line specific to this truck.

With yours being a 4x4 it should have the sring mounts like the 1 ton and larger trucks had. Should look like this
I was unable to locate any pads that were specific to 4x4's but used pads like the OP posted, after replacing cab mounts and bed mounts I found that I needed to use two rubber pads for the radiator support in order to line up the front fender and cab body lines.
Thanks a million for the part number. So far, the radiator support has been the most difficult and time consuming to repair. I could not locate a replacement. It looks real good now. I'm going to put a base coat of paint on it and move on. It's getting cold so the work will slow down a bit. Get the hood into my garage and work on it during foul weather.
Received my radiator support pads today from Green Sales Co. in Cincinnati OH. Good price and quick delivery. They even sent the label from the original packaging.
Thanks to all for pointing me in the right direction!
I have the pads that go on each end of the springs, but what is the pad between the radiator support bracket and the truck frame? The old ones look like a canvas 2 inch square.
What I am looking for is not shown in this drawing. I'm trying to find the spacer/? that goes between part #16219 and the truck frame. The two rubber pads I have purchased have a circle relieved that fit the spring cups #8131. My old truck had two square fiber looking pads between #1629 and the frame.
I checked mine to see how I solved that. It appears I used a piece of old conveyor belt that I cut into the correct sized squares and stacked as needed. If you can't find the correct parts you might try something like that. When I repaired my truck, no reproduction parts were available yet and N.O.S. was already dried up.
