1953 Buick Skylark: Looking for Clamps to secure steering box to frame

[Guest David Dixon]

I am in the process of trying to re-assemble the steering system of a 1953 Skylark, which was disassembled a year ago by someone else. Naturally, in that time, some of the parts have gone missing, and I'm in the unfortunate position of trying to locate them. I need the clamps and [long] bolts that secure the steering gearbox housing (at the bottom end of the steering column) to the frame. The Skylark has power steering. Please advise if you know where I might obtain these parts.... I've called around, and no luck. I don't even know if these clamps are unique to the skylark, or if they're the same as other Buicks of the same era.

Thank you in advance! So frustrating!

Don't tell anybody it is for a Skylark. It will cost you more...

Roadys used the same mounts.

Probably Super used the same as well

I found a pair of clamps, so I'm all set! A few of you called to offer suggestions.... thank you very much for the help.

Just a note for future readers of this thread..... There is no difference between '53 manual or power steering clamps. I just swapped to power and used the clamps from the manual, on the power box.
