Anyone know where to get one ?

the early one not the later 72 and up

I think they might be NLA.

there was a discussion similar to this a couple weeks back.

But I have late cars, maybe someone has some stashed away.

I was hoping someone might have one left here as a spare or something willing to sell?

Really want to keep it original with a new strap. At least the straps are still sold..

I now welded the old mount together but this will give vibrations. It's just temporary to keep the diff nose in place.

If I can't find the early mount then i will have to look for a solution to insulate the early type mount another way. ?

 

The one I previously offered is tentatively now slated for use on an early 70 project I’m working on this winter. If I can convince the customer to “upgrade” to the later diff position to straighten the axle geometry, then this isolator will become available, but I won’t know that for a few weeks or months. Maybe not much help, but at least there is some hope.

How different are they?  Could somebody enlarge or move the holes on a newer one to get it to work correctly in the older application? 

If you have both maybe you could take some measurements and add to your modification program.

I ordered a new strap with the later 72 and up mount. Will see if I can modify it to fit like the early one

I will let it know here if it works. 

So above the black one is the later 72 model, the blasted one the early one.

Anyone knows which side of the later mount is towards the front of the car ?

 

Picture #2 (below) shows the bottom surfaces (front of car points up)... early type (55415-E4102) on the left, later type (55413 E8301) on the right...

Enter “differential insulator” in the search function, and you will find a wealth of information about these

insulators.

is there  somebody/company  able  to make the rubber new?

I remember trying to find an illustration for the diff mount and the transmission mount.  The best I could do was to assume that the mounts go in with the sloped side facing forward.  Like a snow plow or a wedge.  I only found one picture that showed that and had to rationalize that the diff mount would be the same.

It seemed to make sense when I was actually looking at the parts before installing.  Here is the only picture that seems to illustrate that, from 1976.  Nissan calls the transmission mount the rear insulator.

Seems “we” are staying stock so the one I have is off the table. 

Hmmm... I “could” chop the crossmember up and weld it back together with the center “offset” forward, that let’s me use the later isolator....  Done that to standard Z trans x-members to fit the T-5 transmission. Not exactly an invisible modification, but likely workable.

Or,  If it wouldn’t melt the rubber, I could weld/move/adjust the position of the diff mounting holes on a later isolator to let you use it. Very slow welding with rapid cold water immersion every 5 seconds of welding????  

Where there’s a will, there’s a way; and relatives....
