Wrong cab mounts?

[kychevy]

So, bought this project that was billed as an 87’ and ordered the cab mounts for 84-87. Took old mounts out and looks nothing like what I ordered. Also, the new bushings are too big to fit in the hole on the hanger. In the pic below, the long mount was on the back of cab and the short was on the front. Should I be ordering 73-80 cab mounts or the 81-83?

The bushings should match the frame. Your old bushings look like the 73-80 style, can you post a pic of your front frame horns? That’s an easy way to identify which frame you have.

Also, I’m assuming the radiator support will be 73-80 also?

Without a doubt, 73-80 frame. You can tell the frame year range by the enclosed / round end at the front bumper, an 81+ frame is open and angle cut from the factory.

Swap the bushings for the earlier design.

Crap. Already ordered everything for an 87. ‍. The joys of hotrodding. Thanks for the info.
