Mike, despite the picture in that bulletin, the bolts do not go completely into the box. Here's a bad picture I took of the old ones, they have a stud that screws in the box, and the long bolts screw into the nut part, encased in rubber.

Fraser, thanks for that detailed explanation for the different years. I can't even figure out '62!

It's more clear with those pics thanks.
With the amount of strain going through the steering box I'm surprised they ever used mounts like that. Then again look how long they've lasted. I was thinking it was only a rubber bushing between the two.

I think I already said somewhere that when I replaced mine, Baker's was still a place, and he had new rubber ones. I got the old ones out by using a very large set of water pump pliers. (Channellocks) It was actually pretty easy. Someday, I'll get the solid ones. Wayne
