Hey FABO,

Does anyone know if there is a 1.5" version of the biscuit style motor mount available?
Thanks for any replies.

I don't know whether you are wanting thicker or thinner, but there were some van? truck/ other/ pads that were thicker than the original A body ones I ended up with some out of a junker I guess. I was thinking my originals were compacted but the "new" ones were too thick.
 
Slant 6 mount is 1 5/16 can add a shim to make up difference

I bought some new ones from summit or jegs about 7 years ago and they were noticeably thicker than the ones that were on the car.
 
It took me and my hard head a long time to learn the trick of getting a motor to easily sit down on the frame in a 72-93 Dodge pickup! :BangHead: I finally learned that I needed to leave one rubber biscuit loose on the motor mount bracket to get both sides to drop into the holes in the frame, then line the loose one up and drop it down and then tighten the biscuit. That probably applies to any thickness of rubber mounts you use, so hope that helped. :)
