They aren't reproduced and the Mustang ones are not the same.

Simple, find NOS or some good used ones. I believe I've seen posted part numbers for these and I have seen a few pairs on Ebay from time to time.

If you haven't already taken care of this, I believe there's some info in the body insulator bushings sticky page about radiator bushings being made from a "universal kit".

Quick clarification, are you talking the bushing for the bottom of the radiator support? Or, are you looking for the rubber pieces for the clamps for the radiator?

For the radiator support to frame bushings, you can get aftermarket pieces from Energy Suspension that will work, otherwise Jeff's Bronco Graveyard offers a kit that I believe has been used on a few member's vehicles.
