1991 t/c2000 rear engine mounts
Having a hard time finding these. Don and Mary a month ago thought that were called pads. Anyone else have an idea? Not in quik serve though it shows the bellhousing with the mounting ears. It is the rubber mount pad in the middle of the picture.
Thanks

Engine mounts/pads won't show up on the engine makers site. They are speced by the chassis builder (along with MANY other items).
I wound up digging through the back room at my local NAPA to find something that would work.

If all else fails take one to your local Buster forklift dealer. They used some for engine mounts in the 100 to 150 series. Solid and pneumatic tired forklifts. Just a rubber spacer with a sleeve and a bolt and nut through it. FYI the rubbers go against the bracket and the washer rests on the frame pad . if the engine bracket. Has excessive wear a welder can fab home if ya can't buy it.

Sounds similar to the Volvo engine pads I wound up using on my Allie 2200. I'll try and dig up the number but it may take a day or two. It was on my old computer. The one that drowned in Harvey.

who made / makes the chassis for the flat nose Bluebirds? the conventionals of course were the usual ford / navistar / freightliner / GMC, but always wondered for the TC's and AA's who made the chassis.

Bluebird used GMC chassis in the All American until around 1988 then began building their own chassis.

Sounds like it's coming from China. Similar notices (in the fine print) on Ebay. When shopping for some CAC tubing a couple of sites indicated... "normal shipping may require 3 to 5 months".
WHAT???!!
