Polyurethane Manual Transmission Motor Mount

Why upgrade motor mounts?”

Factory motor mounts are made of a soft rubber to control vibration and interior noise during normal driving.  This soft rubber reduces overall torque to the wheels because some of the engine torque is absorbed into the soft mount. This torquing motion into the mount can also destroy the mount and allow excessive movement that can ruin transmission cases and cause wheel hop. Most commonly, the front and rear motor mounts take the brunt of the torquing motion and wear out the quickest.

Upgrade to Polyurethane

These motor mounts feature 88 durometer Prothane Polyurethane bushings.  The polyurethane bushings help eliminate chatter, engine rotation, wheel hop and missed shifts that can result in broken parts associated with drive line flex.  Additionally, these polyurethane bushings are ozone resistant, chemical resistant and will not rot like rubber. They are also very durable, and easy to replace if they ever become wore out.

Sleeve Size Option:

Standard: The mount will include oversized 1/2″-13 Hardware. These oversized bolts will take up any slop that has worn into the engine support bracket over time, ensuring a maximum tight fit of all your engine mounts.

This hardware includes: (Qty:1) 1/2″-13 Bolt, (Qty:1) 1/2″-13 Nylon locking nut, (Qty:2) 1/2″ washers. 

Metric: The mount will include a metric sleeve without hardware.  This option requires you to utilize your existing OEM hardware from the factory motor mount.  This sleeve is custom machined on a lathe to be metric size.
