I managed to fabricate my carrier radio adaptor tray, 19 set no. 22 carrier tray and the junction block mounting plate today.
I also managed to save my 4 rubber shock mounts. They fell apart on me and rock hard but I wanted the mounts on the tray to give it the proper look so I JB Welded the rubber to the metal pieces and to make sure they hold together I drilled a hole through the 2 metal plates, tapped the inside metal part of the mount and screwed them together. This is fine to make sure the rubber mount doesn’t fall apart again but definitely not strong enough to support the entire radio set so I welded 4 metal columns between the adaptor tray and carrier tray, drilled & tapped 4 large flathead screws and this will secure the 2 trays together and prevent the rubber shock mounts from breaking apart. I can’t believe even brand new those 4 rubber mounts held the weight of that entire 19 set! Especially when they jump those carriers in the air!

Got those covered Jordan, what I need now is one of those antenna hooks you were making up. Any chance you have one left for sale?
Thanks,Derk

Seems I’m a few years too late piecing my carrier together. Lots of items were being reproduced like your hooks, grips were being done, antenna mounts etc.
I guess I’ll continue looking for original parts or make up what I can on my own. One bonus on working on my carrier now is all the research everyone here on the carrier forum has done over the years is now documented in all the posts and threads. Descriptions, measurements and photo’s of carrier items have been Well discussed and theories were turned into actual facts on a lot of questions. Thanks to all who researched and put in the effort for owners like me to now have the information to restore a carrier right this time. When I did my first carrier back in 1998 I didn’t have the information needed to get things like seat cushions sewn right or even the right material that was used. Now I hope doing this carrier I will have a more complete and authentic example. Thank you,Derk
