I keep extra air cleaner mounts on hand for when they break but will try making some te next time I have Flexane out. I'll make a mold out of some type of plastic pipe, screw a stud through a cap on the bottom and pour the Flexane then cut the plastic off once it sets.

My engine doesn't shake excessively & still periodically breaks the rubber mounts. The bracket has been broken on every car I've looked at but hasn't broken after I replaced mine.
