85' B2 front cab mounts for starters. Anyone make replacements or will I have to remove factory rivets and get repaired? This is getting old. So much work and so much $....,

I had same issue with mine. I searched everywhere for new ones but had no luck. So I removed the bracket. Cleaned it up and welded in new metal and cut new holes. Turned out very nice.

I welded patches on mine in the truck on my choptop. Actually back then I did it old school with oxy/acetylene. Still have to do it to my 88 but I sourced some washers the right size to weld in and I’ll do it with a wire feed this time.
