my 53 6400 mounts were a mess the front bottom center had turned to jelly and was not bolted to the eng. bracket. there were to front side torque stuts (built from all thread 3/8-16 double nutted to the frame with rubber bushings and washers at the eng. bracket there are no trany mounts metal to metal . I bought a new front center mount put it in and drilled and bolted it to the eng. bracket than I got rid of the allthread and used sway bar link kits with urathane bushings top and bottom looks and works great the rear trany mounts are a diff. story everbody says (parts guys and chassis books) that there is only one style so I bought that style NO GO any body ever see anything diff that what all the resto shops are selling

Hy eliminatethis, there are two different widths of mount in that era perhaps you got the narrow one and actually need the wide one, Carters list the mount in their catalouge as p/n ME217, hope that helps.
