I know when I used mid 80s van mounts on my 85 truck 2x chassis the VC were not level and the fan was off center in the shroud. IIRC.

when I swapped the 85 truck mounts on, it sat nice and level across the VC and the fan was more centered in the shroud.

IIRC, when I checked it out it seemed the driver side van mount was a little shorter/defferent.

I think a van off sets the engine for pedals/steering. looking at a van the engine sits to the pass side in the dog house hole in the floor.

I tossed them in the scrap pile and now I only have a set of truck 360 mounts for someday/some one.

According to 90-93 mopar parts book, van and truck brackets are the same for a 5.2/5.9

I'm running a drivers side van bracket in my 88 w100 5.9 magnum and the engine is 1 inch further back and 1/2 inch to the drivers side compared to my 92 w250

Interesting. Didn't the B vans have a major makeover around 88 or 89? Could be they modified the frames so the vans & trucks could use the same motor brackets. Gene
