Frame Measurement needed for our 79 project
Could someone please measure from the top of the frame to the top of the #4 mounts? We need to know how far below the level of the frame the brackets get welded on.
Also, how far from the rear of the frame to the edge of the mounts?
THANKS!

I measured an 80 frame and came up with 1 7/8" from the top of the frame to the top of the flat area where the hole is for the body mount bushing. I assume the #4 body mount is the farthest rear one????? It would be nice to find an actual GM drawing of the location of these though. I have noticed quite a bit of difference in the location of different items on different frames. Up to a quarter of an inch in variance isn't that unusual to see. Are you welding on some new body mounts or what????
