Ripoed motor mount, can i still bolt it?

[C.bowles2]

I took my motor mounts out today and of coarse driver side is broke. (See picture) Passenger side is fine. So can i bolt both and out the ripped one on passenger side and good one on driver side? Or should i just buy merchant mounts?

I'd buy new ones and bolt them. If you have the money to spend then go for the merchant ones. They do have a little more felt vibration

Ahh j said screw it and bought merchants anyone want to go half on the other one? Thinking i could save a bit of money and just run the driver side

I bolted mine ripped also, no issues. I can't afford even one merchant mount or I would:roflmao:

I would have just bought a new stocker for $100 and bolted it. Saves you alot of money and just as effective.

Bolted my ripped mount couple days ago. through a couple bolts in if you're worried about it.

knowing your rough on that poor rig with a stick in hand , how is the metal that is not connected to the rubber holding up? is it bending up around the bolt at all? that was my concern when i first bolted my mounts so i bought a new one, then bolted it. i figured the little bit of rubber would help hold the steel down from bending but there again, i cant see it doing all that much.

Good question I'll have to check, I put 2 bolts in mine right where the two small holes already were, but had to grind the one bolt head to clear the frame. I've done a few "3rd" gear launches since then at 4200 rpm so if it's gonna do anything as far as bending, it probably already has. I know before it was ripped and the drive shaft was hitting the rear engine plate it was torqing over so bad. I know it's not doing that anymore, but I could maybe see the bolt heads trying to pull through or at least denting the metal like u said. I'll look and let u guys know
