How many blots hold the engine cradle to the frame?
Holy smokes... how many blots hold the engine cradle to the frame of a 69 truck 2wd? I counted 4 per upper control arm and 3 bolts on each side lower frame. Am I missing something? I thought for sure this would fall right out...

Ha Ha those came off first. It must be rust holding this together. I have two frames and I noticed something cool. One has the engine (hold down/ loop on the LH side of the frame)? riveted to the frame and the other is bolted on the frame.

Re: How many blots hold the engine cradle to the frame?
That should be all of them if you are talking about the crossmember. Might want to whack it with a sledge to break it loose. Could be bound up between the frame rails a little.

Thanks Reno, that's what I thought. This frame has been sitting exposed to the weather so it looks like time for the B.F.H.
