Hello Phorum Membbers:   For the Philco 37-640 tombstone radio I am trying to restore, which  rubber gromets should I order for the chassis bottom to cabinet bottom(PHILCO chassis supports).  I believe that the mounting screws go through them.  Should I order CH32 or CH4 from Renovated Radios?  Thanks, John

Thanks Richard for the replay. Unfortunately, I had thrown the old pieces away but they were so distorted and smashed, I don't know if I could of even gotten a true measurement.--John
