Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

The trans with O.D. came from a '57 passenger car, and I only swapped the gears in the rear end.
As for the cab mounts, to be honest, I'm not familiar with the differences between them, I've just noticed a heck of a lot of these trucks look as though they have a bad back. But you're right, it's probably bad mounts.

here is a pic of the vulcanized 3/4 ton mount:

Cab mount?

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

yeah that is the rear cab mount for the 3/4 ton and bigger trucks.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

Is that what you mean by the "broken back" look - the rear of the cab drops down so it no longer lines up with the box?

Yep. It produces a slightly V'ed effect in the body lines from cab to box and gives the appearance of a broken back.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

I can't wait to ditch those mounts.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

No doubt. I'll have to look under mine. Those have got to go.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

Yep the 3/4t mounts just dont last. I have to replace mine as well. Just the rears only tho. You have to get used 1/2t ones. Or there used to be a guy on here that had a bunch made and i got a pair from him. Cant remember his name or email. I will look it up and see if i can find him. His were really good quality. They looked almost exactly the same.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

If you can find a contact for lilred66 he is still reproducing them, I heard just the other day from another board member that he got a set a few weeks ago, and they were real nice.

3/4 ton is the only way to roll. This truck is all stock except for dual exhaust and 15" wheels. Got the split rims in the shed. 283 4sp 4.56rear (need sumpin pulled)

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

Here's my '64 I just bought yesterday. No engine, manual trans. The body has seen some tough times, but the main reason why I jumped all over it was the fact that it has factory A/C. I have never seen in-dash air on a '64, because I thought that the option first came out in '65. Anyway, it's got the tinted windows, but the evaporator housing is missing from the firewall. Funny, I have seen those pieces intact on parts trucks, but it's always the dash pieces that are missing. This one was backwards. I bought it off of Craigslist from a guy who was getting evicted and had to get rid of it. I bought it for $200. The Chevy truck Gods were shining down on me yesterday.

I plan on getting it back together, stock-looking, and making a cool parts chaser out of it.

You can have your cab mounts redone by STEEL RUBBER PRODUCTS if you want to stay stock.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

Here's my C-20!

It may be being changed to a six-lug setup, but it's still a 3/4 ton at heart.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

I thought you could use the LMC/Goodmark 1/2 ton mounts? There is a write up around here somewhere...

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
 

Mine is a mess right now but should be on the road very soon. Starting from the wheels up.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
