Engine mounts
Thanks everyone for your prompt response!
Lyn: There are no markings on the original mounts (so maybe they are not original?).
Cliff: Our truck is definitely made in Canada as the data-plate says so. However some parts are stamped "GMH" indicating parts were added in the Holden factory in Australia before being shipped to NZ. It is the militarised version with the wooden steering wheel and army instrument panel.
Phil: Thanks for your helpful and very comprehensive reply. Yes your diagram is the one I was referring to. Am I correct in thinking that that type of mount was used in trucks used for "heavy duty"? If so, then the LRDG trucks would surely have used that type of mount? The attached photo shows the cross-member with the original(?) "male" mount at right and one of the new (female-only) US mounts at left.
