IIRC, I think IH Only was selling the new OE Bell mounts at RMIHR.  They 
did have their RPT "SII Trans" (D-311) mounts, dogbone motor mounts, 
side motor mounts, SII mounts, etc.

I haven't broken my RPT SII engine and trans mounts in my race Scout 
yet.. though I've tried. :D

I'm also running a pair of RPT 74/75 side mounts in my Travelette.

Get after that, Jim.  I'm going to need to know what to use before too 
much longer.. :)

I'm also starting to consider a body lift for my Travelette, to help 
clear the T-35 with less tranny tunnel butchery.
