Finally back on ole Rustee the Jeep.
 
Bought new one wire alternator and the bracket which seems to be universal is supposedly to mount on the bottom generator brackets.
 
Mine has a rubber insert on the front mount and the back one is shot. Any ideas on a replacement for that?
I do see that those rubber generator support bushings are available at Kaiser Willys. Are these to be used with the alternating mounting brackets to make the holes the same size?
 
Concerned that they will give way!!
Thanks,
Carlton

Those rubber bushings originally held a generator that weighs considerably more than your alternator.  BW
It is NOT a Jeep Willys! It is a Willys jeep.

Happy Trails! Good-bye, Good Luck, and May the Good Lord Take a Likin' to You!
