WOW! Talk about broken engine mount!

[ripped camel]

So I've been complaining about the extreme violent vibrations above 65mph and suspension was one thought, the other was driveshaft yoke. Well....

I had a shop look at it and they said the suspension is fine, but the ball joints will need to be replaced sometime in the next few months because they are showing signs of wear.

After not finding anything the guy gets in the car, has the other guy stand in front of the engine, puts it in D, then mashes the brake and gives it gas. Man that engine practically leaped out of the car. That thing is definitely needing to be replaced!

So I looked on supercoupe performance and they don't have polyurethane mounts for the engine. Where can I get a pair and is that the right route on a DD? Keep in mind I'm pretty rough on this car....

Don't those say solid rubber

That's what they've always been.

I'm on my second pair. Next replacement will be these...

Good one Driller... I was just getting the turbochuck link ready...

 

[ripped camel]

So are the solid rubber ones on supercoupe the same as oem stockers?

be prepared... you might find that the saddles the mounts sit on are broken too.
Mine were

WTF? I'm trying to contact this turbochuck guy but there is no email address nor any phone number or a place to pay for them.

I don't have outlook so any ideas?

Thanks for the spoon but you forgot my bib...now I have crap all over myself

 

[ford nut]

Well that explains the "clunk"

 

[kustomizingkid]

I like when my car clunks!

 

[CobraStar_LS8]

but when it clunks it becomes a clunker

 

[kustomizingkid]

Then you get some CHING!

Good for you! You took that quite well.

yea it sucked had to change the hole K member, but it was broken in another place anyways.. so it wasn't JUST the motormount saddles that caused the replacement.

I've got some pics "somewhere".. I'll dig em up.

 

[XLRVIII]

Here they are

 

[ripped camel]

Man that is harsh! Was that from using it while the motor mount was broke so it started to torque the saddles? That is insane!

I'm sure hoping mine doesn't look like that

Fordnut: yeah that definitely explains the clunk

DLF: I removed the panties that were somehow crammed in my :q:q:q:q:q:q:q so I have my sense of humor back
