I wanted to put a open drive shaft on my 39 Ford standard but the truck open drive bearing retainer and trans mount measures 8 inches center to center but my car mounts are 10 inches center to center. Is there a different truck mount i can use? Marv

No there isn't. You'll have to modify the stock mount to accept the 8" spacing. Maybe someone out there could create this for the market.
