    By "carrier brackets", maybe these are brackets designed to be bolted on the car at the factory so that the car may be transported on a train or truck, then removed as part of the dealer prep. I've owned several cars and trucks that had transport brackets, including a '56 Super Wasp, but those don't look like the brackets that were on my Hudson.

    The auction is for two Hudson Center Bearing mounts with cushions. Both of these are for Hydramatic equipped cars. For those who have parts books go to Section L and see the illustrations for application.

    Cheers:D

    OK, carrier bearing brackets! Now they make sense. Too fancy to be a transport bracket!!!

    Beware Of These, The Metal Parts Are Ok, But The Rubbers Are Too Small After Market Soft Rubber, Look Like The Conv Top Mount Pump Bushings And Not Strong Enough Or Large Enough For Correct Spaceing On The Driveshaft Carriers. Get The Correct Ones From K Gap, Happy Hudsoning, Bill Albright
