[ARC5] Shock mounts

[Craig]

Mike:Funny how things work out sometimes... I'll get with you off list 
on dimensions. Give me a couple of days to do up some quick sketches and 
send them to you for dimensioning. The Lord PL series info is useful 
too. I need to figure out which ones are right for my instrument panels, 
especially since I won't be installing the boat anchor artificial horizons.
