so i found out that the insulator was for the radiator itself. im going to order the support, the reinforcements, and the upper and lower cushions.

what exactly are the cushions called? are they body mounts? im having a hard time finding them due to all the different names.

rad support: ebay - $146
support reinforcement: Rock auto - $15 & $17

Lmc has everything in their catalog, I just did a front clip swap on my 91, they have diagrams with everything on them, mine even needed the bracket that the support bolted to on the frame and they had them too.
