im looking for a trans mount for my 85 b2? im looking for a replacement mount that was on the a4ld. the newer mount that originally came on the fm146 wouldnt fit my xmember so i put my a4ld on one there, but its seen some better days. ive looked online and every one i can find is for newer b2's which is the same style that can with the fm146 that wouldnt work. i read about an 80's f150 mount working, is that true?

I have a few kicking around, but I think they are all the new style.

i just got one at autozone for my 94 ranger. think is was only like 30 bux. can't see the newer ones being too much different. basically the same frame and the same trans. take the old one with you and ask for one for a newer truck and have a look.

no some of them did belong on the inner framerails. i was reading about swapping to them somewhere to add clearance.
