M35 radiator shock absorbing mount??

[deuceman51]

From one of the TMs I have been looking at it shows the bottom radiator support as having some sort of "spacer plate" before the two bolts go through the engine mount, then a washer, spring, washer, and nut. I have everything but the "spacer plate". Does anybody know exactly what this is made of and how thick? Is it rubber or a metal plate? I pulled the pic off of TM 9-2320-361-34P. Thanks in advance.

I just looked at mine, its a piece of rubber about 1/8-1/4" thick

same here.. It's a piece of rubber... Easy to make out of a piece of rubber.

Old radiator hose cut to size would work I think.

That would work. Maybe double it, and that will be the ticket.....

Or, a piece of old mudflap will work.
