I'm not familiar with chuck's stuff,  would these fit an '85 TC?  Is there a "type 2" that replaced these?

yes these will fit a 85 TC, type 1 refers to the year range they fit, type 1 is 83-85 and type 2 is 86-88, I purchased these less than a year ago.

ok,  can you explain the difference?  my turbo coupe is an 85.5,  just so I can make sure which ones I have on there.

85.5 is a rough one. It *should* be like the 83-85, but a pic of your existing mounts would better serve to make sure you're looking at the right stuff.

i had to get a drivers side mount when I got the car and remember having a hard time getting the right one.  I ended up with a kinda round mount that had two bolts going through one side and one stud on the other side.  I had to reuse the brakets that bolted to the engine and k frame,  which also had like a "captive" flat bar as a kinda of limiter if the rubber fails.  I think that was its purpose anyway.  If i remember right,  the mount i ended up getting was the same or very similiar to a tranny mount for an '87-'88 TC.
