Default '69 GP rear flange bolts

Where can I find Rear companion flange u-bolts for a 8.2 GP? Mine seem to be missing and my searches turn up nothing.

Did NAPA have them? I have a set in a 4 pinion rear from a parts car, but I would think new would be the better way to go if you like to horse it at all... although I've seen new cheapo stuff break too!

The new O'Reily's (formerly Schuck's) had cheapo china u-bolts. Looked like toy parts. Giggling and discusted, I said that these will not handle 500+ lbs of Pontiac torque! "Well, that's what the book shows", she said....burn that book please!!! Didn't get a chance to call Napa. I'll call them in the AM.

Hold onto some parts. It's funny how small parts end up misplaced.

Gotta love the "book" parts. Ask for a pair of motor mounts for 69 GP at napa, they can only get one side....FOrtunately you can use it on either side. DOH. Will check around after Norwalk.

It's a Fluidamper..Way too much money. It was over 500.00. My mistake for forking that much for a balancer. You learn as you go I guess.
