does anyone making these. i'm talking about the bulkhead connectors{plugs} that is on the right side of firewall and passes through to the fuse box. mine has some melting issues and I would like to replace it. also I need the support rod{brace} that goes from the front fender apron and radiator support. this on the left side front. this is on page 4 of the body-assembly manual view cc exploded and view dd exploded, part # c43b-16du35. is this brace needed as there isn't one on the right side? this for a 64 bird ht. hope everyone has a great year, thanks for the help,larry t.

I don't see anything with that part number in the parts manual. I don't have the assembly book. The prefix should be C4SB and there should be a number before the 35, not a letter. I see a C4SB-16D032. That's the long rod that goes from the center lock mechanism. There's also a similar rod on the driver side which is part number C4SB-16153. There is no rod on the passenger side. Ford didn't usually spend money on parts that aren't needed so I assume it served some purpose.

support brace
thanks for the reply john. the brace you show #16153 is what i'm talking about. the part number in my body/interior manual is different. my number is blurred, could be an o instead of a u. just wondering if this part is available or fab. one? thanks, larry.Comment

Easy enough to make one Larry. A piece of rod from the local hardware store. Thread one end and a bit of flat plate on the other end with a hole to put a bolt through.Comment
