polyurethane mounts/hangers

i was looking into making my own poly engine mounts and exhaust hangers... i am planing on doing more than just filling the stock motor mounts and pour my own from a mold and same w/ the exhaust hangers in just building a mold and pouring my own poly to make the hangers...

now the question is... where do you buy this stuff from?!? any other tips w/ this kinda thing???

also, if you have any info in poly exhaust hangers that i could just buy, i'd appreciate that too...

thanks,
mike

I would like to know this too. The exhaust hangers would cut down on vibration. I saw them in a magazine for a WRX, the used urathane hangers. I would be very interested in this and willing to spend soem time on it.

The first hit with that search is this:

That seems to be the only option.

I had problems with my exaust movement so I:

1. Replaced them with New rubber ones and

2. Filled all the gaps/holes/space in hangers...with some adhesive caulk, that is used for windsheids. It becomes Solid.

(It comes in a tube from Napa)sorry I don't remember the name but there has been no movement for over 2 years...Chicago winters and all.

I just was under the car two days ago and they are still tight...like they were molded hook to hook.

i got this stuff from lowes hardware... looks pretty good but not really sure if it can withstand the heat... caulk stuff but it was only like $3 so i'm not out much... anyways i saw another one that i think would be even better if needed better caulk so i might have to give that a try if needed...

suggestions?
