1979 Cab mount plates
Only Ford makes the correct pieces. I have seen aftermarket kits that were simply cheap nuts and washers. The parts for your truck are likely obsolete but there are Ford parts that are almost exactly the same used on later year Econolines and Rangers. You'll need a patient parts man with lots of stock so you can compare. (Aftermarket rubbers might not work with the Ford washers.)

I talked to a partsman here in Canada and they are still in stock, about 15.00 per mount. Should be still available in the States, too. Bolts are extra, I broke mine when I went to install a urethane body mount kit, went to the hardware store and bought bolts that were just the right size and used the washers from the mount kit. Good luck!
