Default Engine Jacking Point Block



Does anyone know where a similar piece can be purchased? Autometrics Motorsports is out of stock and no longer producing the piece.
Thanks.

Wow, what timing.. I am machining up a batch of those right now. Material should be here already. They have been drafted without the toe hook portion simply because its boss drags on the ground. I would hate to see someone yank their lower engine mount studs out of their case.

Chris,

I have always wanted one of those cool-looking jack points. Save one for me!

Chris - I bought one of the Autometrics units for my 98 cab a few years ago but I could use another one for my other car. Any idea of timing of availability and price? Sign me up!

Don,

I never said I was gonna actually use it for a jacking point... I said they were cool LOOKING, and I've always wanted one. I have an extra "Ruf" decal, and am looking for a place to put it. Neener.
