cheap 12v to superduty swap
I'm still trying to get some pics of the motor mount and crossmember. I actually used the stock 93 mounts, but modified the drivers side to match the angle of the superduty front crossmember. Then I drilled new holes (slotted) in the crossmember to accept the motor mounts. One thing I do want to change is the tranny mount. I used rubber isolators between the tranny and crossmember, but the tranny bolts are bolted right to the crossmember so there is a bit of vibration. I ran it this past wknd till the alternator crapped out, but got 'er rblt for $70. Also the clutch won't fully dissingage, but I found out why. Not only was the clutch pedel bushing gone, but the shaft wore a oval slot in the bracket a 1/4" worth! Once I get the new bushing in and the JB weld cures I should be in buisness. I'll still work on the pics when it quits raining

Glad to hear that you got your clutch bushing fixed and the rattles taken care of. Why are you worried about a little surface rust showing up in a picture? All of my trucks except the 52 Dodge have some degree of rust on them.
