Q's about H/2H series front motor mounts in 4* series

[cruiserbrett]

I have a 2H motor I want to put into an FJ55, and wondered if there are different style motor mount brackets(the ones that bolt to the block) for H/2H series diesel from 40 series trucks compared to 70 series trucks? the 70 series engine brakcets wont work with standard F/2F 40/45/55 series frame mounts, just curious if there were engine brackets specific to the 2H 40/45 series cruisers...

Can Anyone post up a pic of the frame bracket and engine mount bolted to the block from a 40/45 series cruiser with an H/2H motor?

Thanks in advance!

Brett,
I swapped a 12Ht in my troopie and used FJ 40 series frame brackets and pre 11 84 HJ 60 engine mounts and it fits like it came from the factory that way.
If you search there are 3 pictures on mud that show the engine and mounts.

Brett,

If it helps any, the part numbers for the chassis mounts are the same between the FJ40 and the HJ45. The physical location may not be the same, but you can see if grinding off the welds and moving them would work.

The parts catalog/EPC seems to indicate there is a second mount that bolts on to the welded chassis mounts that changes the mounting angle. See if Marv has these for you.

Dave,
thanks for the info. I will talk to marv and see what he can help with. Can you post a pic of the part that bolts to the welded on frame mount?

I guess waht I need to know now is whether the brackets bolted to the engine are the same from 60 to 70 series 2H powered cruisers, since I just realized that the mounting location/spacing of 2F motor brackets is the same between 40 and 60 series cruisers in terms of location of the rubber isolators.

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but my understanding is that the 2H basically share the same mounting dimensions as the 2F, frame mounts, engine mounts, et al? How incorrect am I?

The mounts bolted to the engine are the same between the donor truck and the HJ60. Not the same with the 40 series, but those mounts you have are 75 series mounts.
