Frame to body mount alignment help

[hammer189]

I'm wondering of my truck was in a front drivers side crash in the past.
I need to know if the second picture is normal, or is the body mount bent toward the rear of the truck. This mount is also the only one that is welded and doesn't have any rivits.
The first picture is of the passenger side body mount.

Thanks, David

It looks normal to me. That's just the way they are. Likely done for clearance for the steering gear mounting right behind it.

>>> as broncodriver99 said.... it's like that 'cause the steering box is in the way.....

That's perfectly fine. Mine looks just like that.

Don't worry if the welds are ugly Ford did it. If its welded pretty and all the way around leaving no pits or gaps some one else did it. Yours looks like original Ford production line.

Thanks for the frame pic link. Yes there are a lot of origional welds on the frame that are on the list of things to "fix".
