1966 mercury 100 rad support

I recently bought a reproduction rad support and I was wondering if anyone knew where I could buy new plastic wire harness clips. Also there are approximately 6 rubber bumpers in the rad support as well. What is their purpose and where could I get new ones? Doug.


These are the rubber bumpers


These are the wire harness clips

This is the locations of the rubber bumpers.

I’ve looked everywhere and can’t find anything like the wire harness clips. I can’t find any reference for the rubber bumpers on the rad support as too what they are even on it for. I was hoping TA455HO might have some insight. Doug.

Many trucks used some metal clips like these on the top edge of the radiator support in 4 locations.

Bulk Fasteners Products — AMK Products, Inc.

However, 1965 and 1966 100/250 2WD at least used the black plastic ones like you pictured.

@mhackney ran into the same thing on the support clips. He 3D printed some.

I haven't been able to find a part number on that one yet since Ford didn't update the part number in the one drawing that shows that area (electrical section) but shows the number for the metal clip. The drawing is in the 1964-1972 catalog but shows a unibody which gives the clue they didn't update the entire drawing at least.

Replacement engine compartment harness clips - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums (ford-trucks.com)

Ditto for the support plugs/bumpers. They didn't make finding everything so easy...
