I used engine mount brackets off a 75 van and it bolted right up. My 74 and most other late model PWs I have seen have two sets of holes. One in the crossmember and another set just behind the crossmember. I used the big block van mount brackets because big block truck ones are harder to find. It bolted right up to the other set of holes. The actual rubber engine mount is the same, small or big block. The output shaft will only need to be changed if the big block trans is not a 4wd trans. If this is the case you will have to swap to the short output shaft. I don't think I have any more engine mount brackets, but if you have trouble locating some let me know and I'll see what I can do. I am in the So CA.area and the self-serve (pick your part type) boneyards around here are pretty good at having that kind of stuff. good luck
