Default How do I get hold of atlas axle insulators?

Hi, just rebuilt the atlas axle off my Capri. Went to fit it and realised that all it had to locate on the leaf spring was a single bolt on each side! Surely theres gotta be some sort of insulator or rubber mount, as each bolt leaves about a 10mm radius gap to the axle bracket. Would probaly explain why the steerings heavy on right hand turns and why the diff gave up in the first place! E-bayed and googled but no joy, any help would be brilliant. Cheers!

Forgot to mention it's a mk3 2.8i, but it's running on a standard atlas. Probaly off a 1.6 or 2.0 mk3 as it has a slower final gear. Cheers.
