Motor truck body structure and radiator mounting means for resiliently supporting the engine heat exchanger or radiator and the vehicle body structure, which includes an operator's compartment, hood, fenders and radiator grille panel, on the chassis frame whereby such motor truck components and parts are movable in a controlled manner with respect to the chassis frame as a structural composite unit in order to mitigate the transmission of forces, shocks and vibrations thereto. The mounting means includes a subframe to which the aforesaid motor truck parts are directly connected and a single helically wound compression spring and shock absorber assembly for interconnecting the subframe and the chassis frame.
