XR4ti motor mounts

Here's the thread,

Here's the info...
Anyway, the way I work is through confirmed orders via email. No "Me too" posts in threads. My email is cwarren@indy.net

If I get enough interest I can order parts for a batch.

The details are as follows:
Pricing $175/shipped in the US ($190 to Canada)
Two choices of powdercoat colors (black or silver) and two choices of bushings, stiff or soft. The soft bushings are a new dual durometer configuration that offers better NVH isolation over the old soft ones.

A confirmed order is one to the above email with your shipping info and the color and bushing choice.


I assume they'll be good for rally car use since John seems to like them.

Already got mine. Built Ford Tough. I need to assemble a turbo from all the cracked exhaust housings I have and put the @#%^ car together. First gotta get the shed built so I have a garage bay, and I have to fix the $&^%#@ snapped bolt in the thermostat housing on my Legacy (that's what I get for trying to do preventive maintenance and actually change the 5 year old coolant).

But they look tough, not as kickass as the Group A mount the engine to the shell, but for street cars and really most rally pervs, they should be enough.

Gotta go drag out the torches and get the Legacy functional again....

In my Legacy, at around 225,000 miles, just after the timing belt snapped, I stopped to put oil in. Added two quarts and the dip stick was just barely registering oil. Decided it had two more quarts in in than it had before and drove off. A week later a friend who had borrowed the car called me and said it was overheating. Told him he might check the coolant since I hadn't in the three years I owned it. It was pretty much empty. He refilled it and the car was fine. He wrecked it and totalled it a few days later.
The EJ22 is tough and at $100 from the scrapyard, disposable. We donated the three from the garage to the alley trolls when we moved though.

Mine's an EJ25, it's a 2003.

Actually, the coolant's only 4 years old, they did headgaskets under warranty at about 30k miles. Damn, I could have gone another year.

--Andrew, now off to get a metric tap set for the new bolt.

If these are the mounts that Chuck makes I can say that they are rally tough. I put in a set last year after going through stock mounts faster than tires and they are tough. The new style is much prettier than mine
