Default #4 body mount

Does anyone know what size the holes should be in the frame brackets for the #4 body mounts? Mine were so rusted I couldn't measure them. I don't know if they are the same as the #1's or not. Thanks for the help !

Did you look into buying them already made?
I have to do replace mine as well, but I don't have the equipment to make them.

I welded mine up, but Volunteer sells the frame brackets.. would have been a better way to go.. I'm sure others make these (or resell) them as well.

Thanks for the help. I made mine also. I couldn't see paying $40 a piece for them from ZIP.

I just replace the top with the hole in it and make the weld on the corner both sides. Grind the corners round and your done and the location is perfect as the sides are reused. I think the hole is 1 and 3/16 but check the front to make sure. With the plate made its a ten minute job.
