ucw458 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Just use a torque strap like the V8 guys do. I've seen people use just a chain but you can get more elaborate/pretty than that if you want. It's just a metal strap that only allows your engine to move as far as you let it.

Casey_L Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Click Here Hey I would be happy to make you a set of these. http://lh4.ggpht.com/_VUaI7bsfmok/SoYyhC5pDlI/AAAAAAAABps/MKL16hgG5vc/s512/untitled.jpg P.M. me if you are interested. I have a jig all made up for them, lead time would be one week. Will come powder-coated black. I can get more pictures, the ones in that GP thread do not show the quality of the weld.

Indiana Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Are you using the upper plates on both sides? If those are there then how are they moving so far as to tear? If that is still happening just modify that plate for a hard stop. right side mount with heat shield bolthttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Motor-Mount-1987-1989-Chrysler-Conquest-2-6-Front-Lef_W0QQitemZ270447931945QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item3ef7f3f229&_trksid=p4506.m20.l1116 left side mounthttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Motor-Mount-1983-1985-Dodge-D50-POWER-RAM-50-RAM-50-2_W0QQitemZ270458438328QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item3ef89442b8&_trksid=p4506.m20.l1116 W R O N G to only use this part, they WILL failhttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Motor-Mount-1987-1989-Chrysler-Conquest-2-6-Front-Rig_W0QQitemZ270458424946QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item3ef8940e72&_trksid=p4506.m20.l1116 When the motor tries to TILT the plate the mount is bonded to HITS that upper bracket and prevents the bond from being broken. That plate has to be there and how many threw it away, lost it or didn't think it was needed? Does your car have it? If that isn't enough of a lip then weld on more metal but that plate is curved on the end and the mount comes up and bangs in to it if the bond is broken so further limit the movement some how. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
