Steele rubber product has what you need,you might need to to send in your mounts as some have new rubber molded to your original steel cores,I have a 97 catalog and their number then was 1-800-544-8665 they had mounts listed for 61 to 63s but this is a 10 year old catalog and many items could have been added since

I've seen them on ebay a few times. This is a one-year only application so Steele may not be making them, though they could easily rebuild the originals if you had them. I don't have my parts books handy and the computer at home is dead so it'll be Monday before I can give you part #s.

This same question came up on www.realoldspower.com a while back and someone posted a pic of the frame mounts. Can't remember if a pic of the actual rubber mount showed up.

I've often wondered why the 64 books don't show the J-88 330 engine mounting.

Just to close this thread out, I took a look at my J88 that's currently parked out by the shed, several projects down in the queue. The frame mounts are two tabs that extend rearward from the crossmember. The rubber motor mounts look amazingly like the 65-70 full size mounts. These are the ones that have a single threaded stud sticking out from the frame side of the rubber mount. The J88 mounts sit directly on the two tabs on the frame and the studs extend through the holes. They are retained with an oversize washer and nut. I don't know if the 65-70 mounts are identical, but I bet they would work.

GM Group# 0.027 shows Part# 384059 for J88 FRONT Engine Mounts.

They are different than the other Full Size Olds because of the 330 Engine.

REAR RH (trans mount) is 586540 & LH is 586541 which is also used on 1961-63 Full Size Olds with AUTO Trans
