Topic: 289 transmission line brackets

[tvor]

hi all,
Could someone provide a picture of where this bracket mounts to and if the bracket holds both lines or a bracket per each line.

Thank you so much!

Are you asking about the one that holds the lines to the engine grounding post behind the alternator?

[tvor]

I don't know  .  I can't remember what went there.  It would be a bracket to hold the tranny lines somewhere between the tranny and the radiator.  I've scoured the manual and pics on the internet, but I have yet to get a glimpse of this elusive bracket.

Is it the same for 67?

Some pages from the '75 MPC illustration section that may help. I have no information on how closely this matches what was actually done on the assembly line.

The Ford base part number is 7C008 which in the 75 Ford Car Parts says - "improvise". I've ordered a couple from NPD under their stock number 7C008-1. The one I have (still in the bag) was made by Shafer's Classic Reproductions Inc https://www.shafersclassic.com/ The bracket works which is what I wanted. How accurate remains to be seen.

My NPD version looks close to Brian's pictures, but is missing the plastic/rubber insulation around the hook.
Upon further review (tis the season), I found the original I took off my "K" Fastback AT and it is shaped like the reproduction, but without the insulation. I've use black "Plasti Dip" (Home Depot) to build up the insulation on the bracket (and wiring clips too).

Can't tell if it's the same size as Brian's. Per the 1969 Ford utiity parts catalog, it has the same shape as a 370717-S100.

Don't recall ever seeing an original what was rubber coated. Wonder if that is from a different application


Looking through my pictures of original car found

65's - no rubber coating

5F08C7275xx


5R09C150899




Late 66 with rubber coating





Minimum sampling at the moment but thought I should share.

The one shown in Larry's T-Bird catalog appears to have a smaller mounting hole.
(I find no application for 370717-S100 on 64 to 73 Mustangs.)

Agreed, I could not find a Mustang application listed. The 370717-S100 could be used as a functional solution until a more suitable reproduction is available. The 60-64 MPC lists a 7/16-14 mounting bolt. If the hole in the bracket from Larry's is too small, it could be enlarged slightly. It would be nice to see the repro side-by-side with an original.

I think so, but I don't know.  I have that in my 'cart' now (along with a bunch of other bits), but I want to make sure that's what I need.  I can't recall what was there originally or where it was mounted

Is that the one that mounts to one of the upper passenger side bellhousing bolts?  There is a clip there that looks very similar to what you posted; it's intended to keep the line that runs up to the back of the intake in place.

This may be an entirely different application than what we've talked about so far.  I'm not sure if the bellhousing clip is used elsewhere to hold the lines.

no. this one mounts at the grounding bolt below the alternator.
