Default Looking for 1988 Mustang Convertible 2.3L Auto Motor Mounts

Can anyone point me to a vendor that carries the mounts?

From what I understand there are two fronts and a rear.

I have tried the Ford dealers and numerous "Mustang" parts dealers without any luck.

Thanks.
Nick

When I worked at a parts store I tried everything to get ahold of a set, I bought a used set out of a low-miles convertible that'd been flipped, I think they're like the Mustang II V8 motor mounts, nobody makes them anymore either.

What about using standard mounts off a hard top?

If not, start calling around wrecking yards. You may get lucky.

Nobody makes repros and Ford has discontinued them. Your best bet is to find a low mileage set in the junkyard.

Almost forgot, Chuck W over on turboford.net and turbotbird.com sells custom made polyurethane mounts for around $100, I believe.
