Your preferred cab/core support mounts, rubber, plastic???

My 67 and 68 both need cab/core support mounts...

Nothing lasts forever. I've seen plastic suspension parts get brittle and crumble, after NOT TOO long on a vehicle. AND we know rubber doesn't last long either.

A preferred brand? Rubber O.E. type? aftermarket plastic?

Thanks!!! in advance!!!

I only use the rubber kits. The supports were designed to absorb vibration and road shock and the plastic or Poly ones will not do that.

Rubber lasts plenty long. There are original mounts out there that are still doing their job. Are all of your original mounts bad?
