My son-in-law came over and wanted something to do, and he likes wrenching, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use his muscle to remove the body from my M37. Of course he wasn't concerned at all about how things needed to go back together, so parts flew all over the place and now that I'm trying to put everything back together. Its getting hilarious trying to figure everything out.
Anybody have any pictures of how the cab mounts and radiator core support mount? I'm puzzling over which cushion goes where and an illustration would be very welcome.
Thanks...

Hey Chuck!
Let me dig around my manuals and I'll get back to you.

Picture sent to your Yahoo email. The radiator is mounted 3 bolts per side, nothing on the bottom.

I know there are two bolts on the bottom of the radiator core support which mount it to the frame, but are there any cushions involved?
That's what I need, is the positioning of the proper rubber parts and the bolts/washers involved.

The picture is helpful. The image has a parts list below but it got cut off. Can you resend that parts list?

Sure do appreciate your response.

Hope this helps?
I will look later today.

From that illustration it looks like the radiator core mounts directly to the frame without any rubber cushioning. I think I might change that as I put it together.

So the parts list beneath the other illustration for the cab mounts will come later?

Thanks again.

Thanks again.

Christmas might be early this year.

The radiator mount is to the u channel. The u channel mounts to the engine. (2 brackets, BB & RR in the drawing) The engine, trans and radiator remove as a single unit.

Then where does the U/V/W bolt/washer go to?

Isn't that going to mount the core support/U-channel to the frame?

No rubber from what I could see.

Side mounting: Bottom mount:

Thanks... That pic of the bottom mount for the radiator support made it much more clear. Exactly what I needed on that mount.
And the pic of the radiator attachment to the support actually gave me some information I didn't realize I needed, so thanks for that too.

If anyone wants to chime in with a pic of a rear cab mount I'd appreciate it.

Another email attachment to you Chuck!

As to radiator, I recall an old discussion concerning the bottom mounts.

That is, a recommendation to use a rubber cushion to minimize shock loads to the radiator. I used a couple of old engine mount cushions on my "factory" restoration. They fit well (you can trim them easily, if necessary), are basically invisible, and seem to me to be cheap insurance.

With respect to the body and cab mounts, there are good diagrams in the manuals.
