Rear motor mounts (or transmission mounts)


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

It seems eBay sellers have the rear upper rubber mount pieces, but not the smaller piece that goes

on the bottom.

So.......why does no one seem to make the bottom piece?

Wonder if you could slice some off the height of the top one as they appear shorter.

I replace the engine mounts in my 50 Meadowbrook found that you feel a lot more engine vibrations through a new mount than through the original ones.

Perhaps you feel more as the new rubber is more firm than old............maybe even the composition of today's

new rubber is different than when original stuff was new.  

 

Thanks for that insight.

Some of the new  and NOS mounts have very hard rubber.

They should be soft rubber.

Next question is............how can that be either accomplished........or determined?

You should be able to push your finger nails easily into the fairly soft rubber mounts.

I have one NOS mount that you can not even push a screw driver tip into the rubber it's so hard.
