Looking for a front left shock mount bracket for a '60-'62 4x4 (see pic). Please post or PM with any leads.

Have seen that on a lot of 60-62 shock mounts like that, why not clean up that weld? Never understood the reason for the pin like that for shock

1960chevypanel · 01-03-2019, 01:20 AM

Yeah that's probably why they got rid of it in '63.. Like to find a clean one if I can.

I could be wrong but that really looks like the upper from 55-59 Chevy Pickups. without measuring might be wrong but might be worth checking out.

Makes sense, this is 60-62 so could be carried over from 59.

I have one from a 55-59 . Have pics on my phone if you pm. $35. They are a mess to get off. Price reflects laying on back with torch. Thanks

1960chevypanel · 01-09-2019, 01:52 AM

Awesome, thanks Paul. Been there/done that with the torch and rivets, I appreciate it

PM on the way.

That's stamped steel, not cast, right?
Why not cut it back apart, through the weld, then re-weld it correctly, and reinforce/gusset it while your'e there?
If you're going to remove it from the frame anyway, unless you're going to re-rivet it, it won't be "concours correct," so you could weld a half-round of tubing to the back of it, and we'd the ends of the tubing to the bottom side of the frame rail, and make it really strong. (I'll be doing that on my '62 K10 frame...)
