1964 F100 4pd floor hump foam surround
 

I'm rebuilding my 292 motor and have the transmission out. There was some sort of "foam" surround where the shifter comes up through the floor. It's about 4 or 5 inches in diameter. Does anyone know if there is a replacement or what you recommend? Also, the clips that attach to the cab body to bolt the hump down have broken. Are there replacements for those or are washers and nuts the answer?

Thanks!

Foam replacement for the shift tower is not available that I know of. I used an old memory foam mattress topper. They sell those clips everywhere even the hardware store just get the screws to match.

The cage nuts are 5/16" - 24. One possible source for them at the following link.

Or if you find some similar in a 5/16" - 18 then just get 5/16" - 18 screws as Christmas mentions.

Wow thank you so much, this forum is great and you guys are awesome!

Here's a picture from a page of the AMK Guide to Ford Fasteners. There were 4 part numbers that are the 5/16 - 24 and 3 part numbers for the 5/16" - 18 so you can possibly use those to help guide your search. Originally it would have been the 359218-S2 - the trailing 2 meaning black phosphate coating - on our trucks, but it makes little difference.

I think I used J-nuts there, Chad, similar to or the same as the ones used on the front sheetmetal. Mine's a '66 though.

Eric, you can use whatever you like. I was referring to what I've found to be stock on many trucks and what the MPC calls for. The nice thing about the stock pieces is they don't create any gap between the plate and the floor.
