Default Fuel pump cradle

As above is there anywhere you can get these new? I've stripped mine down and got it in as many pieces as it can be in but every nut and bolt snapped and the rubbers are shagged so can you get new rubbers if I was to paint mine, what have others done when tackling this job

Mine was the same. I was lucky to get a reconditioned secondhand item from a member on here. Ideally you want to have it blasted and powder coated. Ebay for the cylinder shaped rubber pump mounts. The difficulty is getting the rubber mounts that pass through the boot floor. The rest is easy.

I wish I hadn't sold it to you now as I've just had to buy another cradle for my new saph! Lol!

Been looking everywhere for the rubber bits!! I bought a poly kit which I gave you with the cradle but I can't find one of those for love nor money either!!

I recently got a good condition cradle from Gary at RS Classics, had it blasted and gloss silver powder coated ( for just £20 ) got new rubbers and bolts and it looks mint. My old one has been on the car since new (1990 ) and when I had a new 044 fuel pump/wiring loom fitted recently thought it was time for a new one.
