Does anyone know how thick the upper control arm mounts are on a bbody? I need to make some new ones.

Cheers.

Do you mean the plate with a 90deg bend at each end for the UCAs to mount ?
Happy to go measure mine if you want ?

That's it Morgan and yes please if it isn't too much trouble. Don't worry if you have to jack the car up and take the wheel off etc!

Not a problem. On it...

Apologies for the delay. As usual it turned into a bigger pain than it should have been (not your fault; couldnt get battery out of micrometer!)

Right -
Pics 1 and 2 - The mounting seems to be double skinned at the bush mount. Far as I can see its the same but doubled over. I measured only one thickness. It looks to be (allowing for a little fudge) 1/8".

Its tricky to measure as metal is a bit wibbly and there is underseal etc BUT hopefully good enough for you to assess what thickness.
Measurements taken at A and B in both mm and thou".

Pics3+4 - A

Pics 5+6 - B

Hopefully clear as mud...
Let me know.

PS - I have left her jacked up and wheel off so let me know if you need any others. Otherwise I will reassemble.

That's great Morgan. Thanks for going out of your way to help.
Allowing for the underseal I think they must be 3mm thick so I'll order some material and get fabbin'.

Thanks again
