Thanks for all of your help. I have aluminum mounts but new rubbers and I'll keep any eye out for cracks. I finally figured out I was missing a rubber and a plate to keep the rubber on. Fabricated those pieces and put a notch in the bracket to accommodate the correct top clamshell cover, (the holes in the previous one didn't align with the bottom and was wired together). The rear mount fit right in there perfectly and I'll sleep soundly now.
By the way, I had been wondering for the last couple of years what that bracket was for until someone on this board mentioned a rear FAM mount. Great board-thanks again.
