I have never seen them for a 47-53 unless it was for a later model L6 or V8 conversion. You might have to search someone like Chassis Engineering for something that might work.

We tried Urethane suspension bushings on our over the road trucks about 15 years ago. They lasted a couple of years and then started disintergrating. My son also used some on his 90 GMC pickup and had the same kind of luck.

I got my urethane transmission mounts from Classic Parts of America (Old Chevy Duty). Not a great fan of the urethane mounts but mine have been in for 10K and show no signs of going south. No Urethane front insert available from that vendor.

My interest in urethane mounts was the idea they might resist oil and grease better. But since they don't exist, who makes the best rubber mounts? The old mounts are toast. I would pay for the best if the quality is known...

Check out Steel Rubber. They have the best rubber parts for all of your truck. Cost a little more but worth it.
