Incorrect.

1975/79 E250/350 460: D7UZ-6028-A Right & D7UZ-6029-A Left .. Engine supports aka towers/stands/perches.

2) D5UZ-6030-A .. Right & Left Brackets. These bolt to the block, the rubber insulators bolt to these, then to the supports.

2) D5UZ-6038-A .. R & L Rubber Insulators.

1973/79 F100/350 460:

D3TZ-6028-A Right & D3TZ-6029-A Left .. Engine Supports aka towers/stands/perches / Obsolete

D3TZ-6030-A Right & D3TZ-6031-A Left .. Brackets - These bolt to the block, the rubber insulators bolt to these, then to the supports / Obsolete

D3TZ-6038-A .. R & L Rubber Insulators / Obsolete - These can be bought at auto parts stores.

1975/79 E250/350 460: D7UZ-6028-A Right & D7UZ-6029-A Left .. Engine supports aka towers/stands/perches.

2) D5UZ-6030-A .. Right & Left Brackets. These bolt to the block, the rubber insulators bolt to these, then to the supports.

2) D5UZ-6038-A .. R & L Rubber Insulators.

So are you saying that the picture he shows are not Econoline parts,and the picture I showed are not the correct 73-79 F-series parts?

Quoted from post #14. This is incorrect. The rubber insulators do not bolt to the cross member.

1975/79 E250/350 460: The right/left brackets: D5UZ-6030-A bolt to the block.

The right/left rubber insulators D5UZ-6038-A bolt to the brackets, then to the right D7UZ-6028-A and left D7UZ-6029-A engine supports (aka towers/stands/perches) that bolt to the cross member.

What I have said is, your statement that Econolines didn't use perches was wrong.

What the parts are from, I haven't a clue.

That's kind of what I thought,it would appear that you have nothing better to do other than troll thru posts looking for mistakes so that you can point them out with unsolicited posts of your own.This wouldn't be so bad if you would be specific with your post instead of quoting multiple statements and simply saying incorrect implying that everything you quoted was wrong,especially when it has no bearing in the context of the conversation,he is trying to put a 460 into a truck not an Econoline.While there is no doubt that you know your way around a Ford parts book its quite obvious you don't know what those parts look like in real life,so maybe you should leave that part to people that do.

The thing is, I responded to this thread because you said Econolines do not use perches, and that the insulators bolt to the cross member. That's false.

The portion I highlighted in bold is also false,if your familiar with these parts its easy to identify from the pictures he posted,I never disputed your pointing out the mistake,what I dispute is the fact you do it half *** and imply that the whole sentence is incorrect when it is not.
