Vibration mounts for Voltage regulator ?
I'm having difficulty finding the three rubber vibration damping
mounts for the voltage regulator on my 68. Any body have an idea who makes them ? Tried the local hot rod shops, Napa, O'Reileys, etc .

Re: Vibration mounts for Voltage regulator ?
I got a set from Bills Truck Shop...worked out great for my regulator.
I wasn't able to find them locally in the right size from local parts suppliers. http://www.billstruckshop.com/ Good luck Coley

Have you tried your local hardware store? They are called "well nuts". My local Ace Hardware, has them in many sizes.

I just used rubber donuts. The kind that are shaped like a tiny yo yo. If you get the right size, they pop right into the holes in the radiator support and work great!
