Default Rubber shock reservoir mounts

shockmount.jpgAnyone know where to get the little rubber pieces that go between the chassis and a Penske 8100 remote shock reservoir? I lost one last season and would like to replace it.

A chunk of heater hose?


Could you make something like this work?

I don't think I have room for the piggy back style you show. I'd sure like to find something nicer than heater hose!

Check Earls Supply in Indy. That is where I got those the last time.

Prothane makes some universal shock reservoir mounts. The smallest they make is 2" x 1.5" though so you don't get a good fit on the frame side.
