    I used spring mounts and 3/16 rubber pad underneath. It's a good idea to have some damping particularly when using the newwer aluminum rads due to fatigue issues with the mount weld areas. at the radiator (when applicable).

    Rubber shock washers/pads?

     



    Where can I find a cheap local source for the rubber pads/washers?

    The last time he posted was in Aug of 2010, almost 4 years ago, so I'd say your chance of getting an answer from him is slim to none.
