Upgrading motor mounts
I'm trying to upgrade my '68 Power Wagon motor mounts. I bought some 2nd gen. off ebay and both mounts are different. I'm assuming the one that rides lower is for the drivers side to help clear the power steering pump.
Would any of you have a picture of how Dodge built the cross member or some tips?
I can make it happen once I get the seed planted in my brain of what needs to be done to switch over from the '93 mounts. Thanks

Thank you Bill, I'm building the cross member from scratch, the two wd cross member looks a little heavy. Got any pictures of the 4x4 cross member?
I built my last cross member out of 2"x 1/4 square tubing and upgraded the steering box to an '01 F-350 4x4 cross over steering. Steers great and drives strait but the new steering box twist's the frame and can be felt lifting the cab up and down at low speeds.
I'm going to try and build drag link to stop the frame flex, just like Ford
Any pictures or tips would be appriciated.
