The front mounts are 22002 design. See the attached chart.
The rear rubber rod ends are the 1/2-20 male. One right hand
and one left hand for simple adjustment down thrust adjustment.

Paul,
I'm leaning toward  Polyurethane as the damper choice for the single rotor.
Others which have tried the rubber find it is flogged to dust in short order
in 4 cylinder applications, but I'm not sure of the Neoprene - from what
I've read it is similar to the rubber in performance.

Now Tracy's damper is fine for the 2 rotor and it's proven to perform well,
what I'm thinking of is making my own Polyurethane dampers of the same size
as the 22002 /.5" Al plate thickness ( 6 in number).

My question is what is the difference in length of the steel insert to the
Neoprene mount, which will give me the 'crush factor'.
Is the steel insert hardened?
BTW Polyurethane is Shore A 93 +/-2 with Temp range -30 /+110C (230F)

I don't follow you George. The steel spacer bottoms out.
