Angry 87 mustang 2.3 motor mounts

i'm looking for the motor mounts for this car. I can't find them anywere. I did find the driverside one from autozone. But rockauto, napa, advance, i can't find them there. I dont want a junkyard one because they well probably be just as bad. If anyone can help me i would be very happy.

I came across this one, not sure if it's the one you need or the other one

I assume you're talking about the rubber isolators. I'm surprised you found one at Autozone. I was under the impression they were unavailable from any source, dealer or otherwise. My advice would be to check the yards, find the lowest mileage fox body you can and grab one. If they're no good, the rubber will be split and the stud will just be flapping in the breeze.

a few years ago after a bit of hunting i found a place that still sold them, i dont remember there name though. then i found out about some polly mounts a vender on tuboford was selling, so i got those because they where a bit cheaper and i wanted it for proformance issues. i think i paided $136 for them. the car will vibrate more though due to the increased rigidness of the polyurethane compared to rubber.
