Orion currently sells the vibration dampening pads. See
http://www.telescope.com
<<<snip
If you want I would try
to beef up your mount and add some vibration supression pads (Celestron
used to do a good line in these pads, but I'm not exactly sure they
still do) and this might do the trick, as well as making visual
observing a much better experience than it already is! Hope this tome of
mine helps!
All the best,
Gareth.
