Two pads and the bolt/nut that holds everything together. I think this is the right bolt/nut but needs to be tightened.

As Charlie wrote. The hex bolt is 7/16-20 x 2 1/8" with drilled shank for a cotter pin. The felt pad material is pretty dense.

Randall,

Your best bet is to post a part wanted ad on the Model A section here in order
to find a couple of the special pads you need for your 4 cylinder unit. That part
is referred to as an engine vibration dampener. There are a number of people
on that sight that might be able to provide a couple of original pads for you.
Another source might be Thirdgenauto in Tennessee who bought Roy Nacewicz's
business after his death.

Good Luck,

Peter

Or maybe "Southside Obsolete" ("barnfind08" on this forum). He seems to have everything.

Just to let anyone know Dave Renner has the stubber pad kit and Restoration and Reproduction in Oregon has the firewall mat.
