They kinda look like they are made for a frame that is quite a bit taller than our frames.

My 72 towers look just like those. If you let me know what the measurements are, I'll check mine and get back to you.

Measured my towers. They are about 11" from the bottom(floor in your picture) to the point where they roll to the flange with the bolt holes(near the wall in your picture.) Hope this helps. Good luck.

towers

I measured the frame on the motor home and it was 5 1/8 my 72 4x4 measures 5 3/8 . I also measured the back from bottom lip to top of lip it 11 3/4 they look like they would be a close fit .

Nice try ozarkhippie

Thanks for that measurement Orence1

Well, the holes are not the same for the actual motor mount.
