You can get them from any autoparts store.. The mount is probably due to be changed.. But completly diagnose your problem BEFORE throughing parts at it. Start at the pavement and work your way in till you are absolutly sure its a mount.

Knock under braking could be related to the following; engine/tranny Mounts, shock, brakes, bearings, ujoints, bushings, muffler and much more.

Well lets see, I blew 2 shocks, 3 days after changing them last. I just redid my exhaust 6 months ago and it now bags on the gas tank skid under acceleration now. i had a know like you describe in the past, change everything I listed above, only to find out all I needed to do was grease the slip yoke. If you have the $$ to through at it go ahead. I just hope you find the knock before you get tired of throughing money at it. Cause I spent over $500 for a $0.05 repair.
