1984 Trans Am lower rubber radiator supports

Anyone have a picture or know exactly where the lower radiator rubber supports are supposed to be located on the bottom frame ? There are two hole where the rubber nipples on could go on the lower support. When I pulled the old rad they fell off.

They go right under the edges of the rad where it meets the tank. Those nipples pull through the holes on the lower tray. Put them on the rad and the rad will locate them for you

Thanks for the reply, Yes I know the rubbers go on the tank seams and the nipples go through the holes. My bottom tray/rad support has two holes in line with each other on both sides, one closer to the engine and one closer to the nose. I put the new rad in and it seems to be 3/4 inch higher that the original when I put the top support on, so Im thinking I may have them in the wrong holes. The tranny lines make it a pain to easily adjust the rad.
