Receiver/Dryer Mounting Strap

I am in the middle of the A/C install on my 85. Unfortunately, the Mounting Strap for the receiver/dryer has grown legs and disappeared. The ensuing investigation has turned up no good leads. :-(

At this time, I am considering it lost for good. Does anyone have one they would be willing to sell? I cannot let this little part stop my install. it is the part that goes around the receiver/dryer and bolts to the heater case. It left the clean mark in the picture.

Thanks,
Jay

Re: Receiver/Dryer Mounting Strap

I struggled to find one of those as well that wasn't crispy beyond repair. Eventually, I just made one out of a strip of stainless. Bend it in a vise, drill the holes and make sure you slot one of them.

That is nice. I believe this will be my last resort.

I have this one off of an 84 pickup. $20 shipped if you can use it.
