I need to make new pads that go between the feet of the front motor mount yoke and the frame. Anyone know how thick they are supposed to be?

I would go with these guys or you will have to thru bolt the mount, or do you mean the ones on the wish bone thing.
I cut some muffler hangers in half and went for it.

This company is a good resource for controlling motions that go bump in the night.
Some of the OEM are available at http://southlandit.com/about-old-internationals/ George, the owner is one of the really good guys and deserves our support. He and his company are regular and very generous supporters of anything vintage IHC. Don't forget to buy CANADIAN while our dollar is very low when measured against the American dollar. Right now, an American buyer can expect to get up to 45% advantage with the USD.

I recently pulled the engine from my S120, so I can tell you the insulating pads are only 3/16" thick x 1 1/2" square. I counted four layers of reinforcing cord.

My engine mount horseshoe was secured with fine thread bolts and nuts. A stamped steel (Pal) nut was used as a jam nut.
