    Poly Motor Mounts?

    Inspired by another member, but wanting to go slightly overboard as per my usual :P

    Picked up a new set of motor mounts, cost about $90USD for all three. As the transmission uses a pillow mount, and I'm too lazy to remove all the stuff in that area to get access, I'm not bothering with it.

    Got a 70A urethane from the same company I used for casting my rear spring converters (if you haven't seen those, they're an 80A urethane that can take 2K psi without tearing, that lets me any use regular spring (and helper spring) rather than the conical type we have stock, or that is supplied aftermarket). Used some tuck-tape I believe... taped off everything and got to pouring.

    there's a paper thin membrane between either side of the torque mount... cut that out, then used acetone and isopropyl to get rid of the release agent that was still on the rubber. Taped one side with the metal cutout, then taped over the whole thing including the metal to keep it clean. Pour in one spot and let it fill.

    My phone's on the fritz, just randomly shutting down and freezing, if it stops being garbage I'll try and get another pic of them with the tape peeled off.
