Hello, I'm having trouble finding rubber pads for my 37 headlamp stands. Jim Carters gasket pads are the wrong size. I think my headlight stands are not from a 37. The mounting holes do fit the rad. shell holes. The size of my stands are, 6-1/2" long, 2-3/4" wide and 4-1/2" center to center bolt holes. Thanks in advance.

You can cut pads out of sheet rubber. I have a 37 truck with the stands off the grill shell right now from which I can make a tracing if you'd like; I know they are 37. We use rubber from a 100ft roll that is about 0.090 thick and 8" wide that is used for new seals on the paint booth doors. We also make up beaded pads when called for if none can be found. Used to use liquid live rubber to poor into the mold but been using urethane lately because it's so much more durable.
