Hi Guys, I haven't been on for a long time. I started working on my brother's 57 Ranchero. I bought a body mount kit from Carpenters and noticed on the illustration page it shows special washers on two mounts. One on the front inner floor and the other behind cab on inner. On my brothers car they are on the first three mounts. I know they say these kits don't fit Ranchero. But they really do. Just wanted to know if anyone else seen these. none on the mounts behind cab. Thanks for any response. Happy New Year to everyone, Thanks Terry
Welcome back! :006: Can't answer your question...but I'll be the first to tell ya' we LOVE pics...when you get some time...show us some 57 porn! LOL!!!
There are Ranchero guys here who will be able to answer your questions though.
I will try and get some pics. I believe my question should have been doe's it really mater about special washers?
I'm not 100% clear on what your situation is with this Ranchero, but I recently installed my Ranchero body on the frame. If you'd like, call me and I'll go over what bolts, washers rubber pieces I used, and where. I'll send you a Private Message with my Phone number

This was discussed a while ago but may be helpful
Thanks guys, I put my mounts in where I thought they should go. I noticed the very front mount at engine has a extra metal shim in it also.
The mount kits work on all 57's accept Skyliners and Sunliners although you may need a few extra pieces.
One of the Ford vendors I think it is Concours in califufu will sell all the parts individually if you need some extra pieces.
Goodluck,
Ron.
