Off topic question. Are those commercially available rear muffler isolation mounts or were they fabricated ? Simple system, based on the kind of flawed original Ford design. If fabricated, what type of runner biscuit was used. That is such a tight space, it was tough to fabricate and mount "hanger type" mounts off the x-member.

I bought the rubber mounts at a local Auto parts store. From memory I think they were for a Toyota exhaust hanger bracket.
I just went through the rack until I found something that I thought would fit.
