Title: TC motor mounts
Post by: bullitt4514 on March 16, 2012, 12:52:33 AM
For an 88. Rock auto has the passenger side, but no passenger side.

Are the sides interchangeable?

Yes, but only if you drill new holes in your lower mount plate. Otherwise no, the bolt spacing is different.

I can deal with that :D  Thanks for the info!

I still find it odd that everywhere carries the passenger, but not the drivers side :disappoin

Same here when the drivers sides go bad first! I haven't confirmed it but you might also try the 5.0 mounts they are pretty similar as far as the cushion goes.

I'll see what happens. $11 from rock auto so not too bad if it will not work.

Why not just get a set of Chuck's engine mounts?  At least I think he makes them for your car.

I agree, he makes some really nice mounts and I do plan to buy some.
