Help!!!! I am reinstalling the Radiator Core support on my 1969 C/10, I've had it off for quite some time and have forgotten how the Washers and spacer are installed to the Frame Rails. Does anyone have any photos of how they go back, our the ability to explain it would be greatly appericated, Thanks

Interesting, that looks nothing like what was in the Longhorn's front clip.
Well, it is close, a couple of the bushings are almost an inch tall on mine, and there is a metal sleeve that goes into it on mine.

Thanks for the information, The previous owner of my truck had used 67-68 type mounts, I have corrected this and went back with the proper type mounting, everything went on fine. The truck should be back on the road next weekend.
