3B engine mount brackets (1 Viewer)

[tmorris1076]

I am swapping frame on my bj60 with and fj60 frame and had planned to cut brackets off of BJ frame and then weld to fj frame. Does anybody have access to new brackets so as to save a step?

Thanks,
Tyler

I have a pair of frame mounts from a 83 BJ60

the bj 60 from 85 has different mounts, just so you know

If the mounts are in good shape then why not cut the frame, and grind or zip cut the frame off the mount ?
I did that for my fj45 put the mounts back on the motor dropped the motor in place - measured then tacked it up.

Tater, can you send me pics of your mounts? And price. Thx

Remember to take measurements of the mounts they are offset on the frame.

I plan to build a bridge btw the two on current frame then use that to set mounts on new frame. That make sense? If there's a better way or simpler way I'm all ears

The rubber insulator ARE different between >85 and 85 but the bracket on the frame are the same from 81 to 85.

On the 81-85 the brackets are different in size the rubber isolators are the same ....I just cut off the brackets from a rusty frame 81 and took measurements to fab up a second set if I ever needed a spare ......one is bigger then the other not by much but roughly 1/2inch.

K. Hopefully this week I'll have the engine n tranny out to start the mount swap...

the late model 85 has different brackets on the frame
make sure you get the engine a little crooked for the offset diffs
