Z bar - mount @ engine

i'm trying to figure out if where to find the rubber piece that goes on the Zbar engine mount - mine was Half gone and I imagine you need that to keep the grease in. I also might have lost the nut and extra piece need to mount it to the frame. Any pictures would be great.

Re: Z bar - mount @ engine

Re: Z bar - mount @ engine

It's a big felt washer on the engine ball stud.

You can get all those parts from just about any of the vendors.

Re: Z bar - mount @ engine

Some help finding it would be great. Lmc's set up looks a bit different on the engine side.

Give WES a call at Classic Heartbeat. If he doesn't have it he will likely send you in the right direction. He knows these trucks. Good Luck.

Re: Z bar - mount @ engine

Here is a picture of the mechanism.
The stealer may be able to cross reference a lot of these parts from newer years, since the same design was the same more or less for quite a few years.

I know I have purchased some of these parts myself from LMC, so just go onto their website and order a catalog at www.lmctruck.com/chevrolet

or go to the vendor side of this forum at http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/f...play.php?f=195

Re: Z bar - mount @ engine

You might try one of those battery terminal anti-corrosion felt washers. They're red and green, not gray, but are about the same size.

Re: Z bar - mount @ engine

How about this kit?

http://www.classicchevroletpartsonli...pu10flx&from=2

On the stealership, they have the ability to look that stuff up just maybe not the will to do so. I went to my dealership earlier this year to look up some bolts and although they were no longer available they told me the correct size,thread etc. Even showed me a diagram on the computer screen to verify which hardware I was looking for. I told them it was for a 1975 truck and they didn't have any problems. Frustrating though some dealers will go above and beyond to help and others just look at you like you are crazy.
