Body mounts on '72 98?

I have to replace the trunk body mounts (4) and likely others. Does anyone have a recommendation on the best deal on line?

Did you check Fusick or Kanter for the body mounts?

I doubt anyone sells body mounts specifically for the Olds full size cars. Ames Performance Products has a page of body mounts in their Full Size Pontiac catalog. You can match them up dimensionally.

Tried Fusick but he did not have them. Jokingly said to go down to Dicks Sporting goods and buy some pucks. Best I can do is try and match the sizes of what I need. There are:

2.5" diameter, approx 1.25" thick at the forward mount of the trunk on frame rail.
2.2" dia x 1" thick on the lower rear mount and a big 3.1" dia x 1" above the frame under trunk floor

These are all approximates given the worn out squishies that I pulled out. Any ideas? Just hunt around for anything close?

If you have to do that, I don't think it would be objectionable. In fact, new body mounts made from hockey pucks would probably "perform" better than the OE body mounts you have now. I know the 4x4 crowd and others use hockey pucks in body, engine & transmission mounts.
