New core support

FYI, anyone who's looking, Jeff's Bronco Graveyard has the correct core support in stock.

Also, here's the part number for any other source people might want to find.

I've never seen an LMC unit.

220 in shipping puts an LMC unit out of the question for me personally.

On the website new ones are listed at 325, mine was a scratch and dent, I paid 175. I picked it up myself, so no shipping.

My whole truck was just horribly rotten and rusty, cab was sank 2-3" below where it should have been, complete bottom of the core support is gone. Top of mounts was gone too lol. Just a big mess of rust. I'm only holding on to the original one... IDK why really lol, I say so I can have all the brackets and bolts, but honestly the entire thing is trash.

It didn't make any weird noises or anything, but since I'm swapping the cab and front clip, I was going to put that rotten thing back on.

Those supports rot down south even. Roll under it and poke your finger up there and see how it is currently.

100% will buy one from Bronco GY when I get that 97 running on its own.

Wish I had known they sold them, bought mine off LMC. Shipping is a killer but when I talked to them on the phone they said if you spend over $1,000 shipping is free. So I guess if you had enough stuff to order it might not be that bad of a deal. But that's a good looking support.

what did you use for bushings did you buy a kit just for the core support that has the steel parts bolts washers etc. Or did you get a full cab kit of bushings and get separate bolts and washers thanks

I've swapped cabs entirely. New to me cab, new core support. All bushings new now. Mounts I welded washers to where it was opened up.
