I installed a T-85 OD transmission from a "56 T-Bird ( Mercury ) in my "57 T-Bird. The part referenced is stamped steel and mounts on the T-85 to extend to the '57 T-Bird rear transmission mount. Mine came with the transmission. Ernie

The first two pictures above are the transmission mount. They bolt together, and then to the transmission crossmember that bolts into the X frame. One is the old rubber that is flattened down, and the new one beside it. Joe-JDC

Concours Parts has an exploded view of an O/D transmission that shows the 7085 bracket in the drawing on page 38 of the 2022 catalog. Perhaps someone knows how to paste the image on here for others to see.

It looks like the 7085 mount is not reproduced. Best bet is to try the Tbird parts suppliers that also deal in used parts. CASCO,. Hill's, Prestige. Others are Adrian Lorii 570-709-0832, Tony's Classics 515-321-0767. Here's a pic

Thanks for tip. I have talked to all of those fellas. One supplier mention he was thinking about repro them. It has been done before, not that technical to do but do need a press break. Will wait to see if one shows up or someone repro them. Thanks Bill Oregon
