Re: The Dakota Cadillac (68 K20 w/ Cummins)
Ok, so tomorrow turned into a few days, but here are pictures of the motor mounts.
The engine side is stock 1991 Dodge W250 brackets and rubber engine mount. It is then attached to a plate and 2 parallel pieces of 1”x2”x3/16” tubing. A piece of angle iron (I think 3”x3”x1/4”) is bolted into the frame and the 1x2s are welded to it. I also designed the center section to be removable (the engine would have to be on a cherry picker for support, but it can be removed) for access to remove the oil pan if needed. The trans mount is a piece of 6” channel on its back, with 2 poly bushings and tabs to a 2”x2”x1/4” tubing. This crossmember is the lowest part of my frame and even with the bottom of the clocked up NP205. This will also support a transfer case skid plate when I get around to it.
