    I can measure the ones I just removed from my convertible but I beleive the BM7 is correct at least for my 69 GS.

    I'm curious, does the repro part have a steel insert molded in?

    Thanks, Matt

    The repro's do if you get them from the correct vendors. They are soild rubber at those 4 locations talked about above.

    Hope that was what you were asking.

    There is no steel in the 4 pop in mounts. The best ones I have seen are from Inline Tube. They have them in the Olds new parts listing. This is what I used on my GSX.
