1985 6.9 block mounts

where can i find block to frame engine mounts? Ford, and NAPA both sent frame mounts. i understood all mounts were interchangeable through 1994. I HAVE A 1985 F-350 6.9 RAMP TRUCK. I bought an engine from an 87 box truck, which was an E series, of course my truck is an f series. any help is always greatly appreciated! Ford says the block to frame mounts are unavailable.

thanks,

Scott

When you pull the engine, yours will bolt right on.

I assume you are talking about the part that bolts on the engine block.

Salvage yard.

Any F series with an IDI engine in it, 250, 350 and SuperDuty (SuperDuty was what the F 450 used to be called before 1994)

There are steel mounts, steel extensions and rubber insulators, which are you speaking of?

The steel supports and extensions are the same 1983/94 for 6.9 & 7.3's F Series Trucks.

If you asking for the rubber insulators...

The rubber insulators you have now will work on all 1983/87 F Series Trucks. 1988 and later are different part numbers.

But none of these parts are the same as Econolines! Econoline parts will not work!

I doubt that NAPA or any other parts store would have the steel supports, since they were a dealer item only.

So I assume that's what you are asking for.

E3TZ6028A .. Right Side Support / Obsolete

PARTS INTERNATIONAL in Farmers Branch TX has THREE = 888-727-0418.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has ONE = 800-543-4959.

BOB ALLEN FORD in Overland Park KS has THREE = 800-676-0675 = This dealer is HIGH BUCK!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E3TZ6029A .. Left Side Support / Obsolete

GREEN SALES has TWO.

No Ford Dealer, no other obsolete parts vendor has either one.

Those are what Ford refers to as the steel support extensions.

E3TZ6030E .. Right Side

E3TZ6031E .. Left Side

Both are obsolete, but I was able to find a bunch of new ones at dealers, obsolete parts vendors, but...

The last MSRP for the right side was $410.99. I kid you not!

The last MSRP for the left side was $148.66. Again, I kid you not!

CRAZY!

That is insane, are they not just mirror images of each other!

Sure glad my conscious won't allow me to RIP PEOPLE OFF like that.

Guess I better go look in my spare parts pile.

Those puppies need to be in a safety deposit box if I have any left.

I think I would go directly to the bone yard.
See if the engine block is still there.

Swap them the E series block mounts if the engine is still there or slip them a 50.
