Looking for help and sugestions on body mount pads for m38a1. I noticed tractor supply sells conveyor belt material , looks like 1/8 inch thick. How about cutting sidewall out of a tire? I know to do it as per original specs I need 3/16 1/8 and 1/4 thick pieces. I know I can buy them from jeep part suppliers, but I'm trying to save a few bucks. Also can anyone recommend were I can buy brass fittings such as fording valve 90 elbow near pvc valve (missing one). Also tee for vacuum line on bell housing.

I used an old mudflap that was the same thickness. Cut to fit. It has been 9 years and still going. Just another option.
