Earl, just got back from NAPA, the part that you recomended will fit ($14.99). The big difference between what I have on my CRL now and the NAPA part I just bought is the (over-travel) restraint pin. All US automobile manufactureres have a "severed elastomer" test to verify that if the rubber fails the additional motion will not cause harm to the vehicle or occupants (GM was sued in the 60's because a failed mount caused the throttle linkage to stick in the WOT position). I think if the new part failed, my side pipe will become the over-travel restraint. I'm gonna wrap a cable or two around the mount just in case.... Thanks!
