Have you tried Steele Rubber Products? They have a huge catalog. And they can
re-build certain rubber parts.
No one makes the front motor mount for my GMC TF V8, but Steele rebuilt my
existing one with a 4 day turn-around (I had to beg, this truck is my daily
driver) for around $30. This was 5-6 years ago. Since then I found another
mount in a junk yard and should (haven't yet) send it away for rebuild.

Subject: [oletrucks] 3600 Rubber drive shaft bushing
Smokey,
I searched high and low all over the e-virtual and physical place and
couldn't find one either. The one I had on my '51 3600 was frayed somewhat
around the edges, so I just cleaned it up, trimmed the mess a little and
re-installed it. I figured that since it doesn't handle a rotating or
moving load at all, it should be fine.
As I was considering all that, I toyed with the idea of making one out of a
block of rubber, but gave it up as being too complex for my limited skills!
If you do find one to buy out there, buy 2 and we'll make a deal!!!
