elusive part - anyone know where i can get 2?

Howdy guys.. gals? errr people..

when i removed my stock exhaust, and went to an offroad x-pipe, it had hanger rods up on the exit of the cats (in the horizontal) and my stock (2008 GT) didn't come with any hangers. (the exhaust didn't even have any hanger rods welded on to it) so i was like, thats weird.. but it's all very solid under the car, so i wasn't too worried about it.. i've checked them a couple times after some hard driving, and they haven't budged an inch.

BUT.. i have since learned that there are rubber hanger insulators that actually mount into the transmission mount cross-bar. and those rods on my new X-pipe look like they're positioned perfectly to fit there.. evidently they cut costs at least in 2008 and don't put them on anymore.

my question: does anyone have the part number for these, and / or know where i can get a couple ?

and just an FYI - it's a cat-delete offroad "Pypes" x-pipe and from there, i went with 3" magnapack w/ 4" tips

thanks!

okay, maybe i should have clarified.. "online"

if i can't find them online tonight, i'll prolly stop in there tomorrow thanks though..

heh.. you're not gonna believe what i found.. there's a TSB out for 05+ on an exhaust rattle noise..

motoralldata says Ford's solution is to slice this rubber insolator, yank it out, and grab the hanger rod with channel-locks and bend it down at least 2" from the transmission cross-member, or grind it off.

pypes, who made my x-pipe (with hanger rods welded on) says in mid-2008 production Ford quit installing the rubber insulator & hanger rod... (which matches with the date on the TSB 08-3-4 FEB 08) although, i'd call that closer towards the end of production in 08 which was around June.

guess i'll get my grinding wheel out..
