Motor Mounts

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

So I finally got the motor mounts replaced yesterday. They had been sitting in my garage over a year. I bought them from the TCCOA site, the solid rubber ones. The front of the engine sits higher, but the performance difference is astounding. I have torque now where there used to just be a 'clunk'. I'm so happy with it. Plus, it only cost $175 for labor. WOOHOO!!

My chain cosy about $11.00 (temped steel) and it works just fine with NO movement at all, zero. You can feel a difference, especially at a launch.

where did you bolt it to? the passenger head to the frame rail? Do you have pics?

I use a torque limiter in my Mopars. The chain was just a little too Alabama for my tastes.

But it is effective!

Why not just because it's a Mark? You can bolt it to the fram rail under the high voltage fuse panel and then to the blick, Ill snap a couple of pics this week.

Not because it's a redneck thing, it's a clearance issue
