poly motor mounts/ where do spacers go? installing my motor with my homemade poly motor mounts.
which side of the mount do the spacers go on? the front (radiator side) or rear (transmission side)?

Re: poly motor mounts/ where do spacers go? I just put a poly insert from Energy Susp. in my driver's side mount and I'll be damned if I can figure out where/why you guys used a spacer. Mine fit right into the clamshell, snug as a bug. Everything lined up beautifully. Oh well, I guess I'm just lucky. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: poly motor mounts/ where do spacers go? The spacers are not for the insert/clamshell, its for the whole mount as the bolt goes through it mounting it to the chassis. If you looked at the poly mount, it was about 1/4"-3/8" narrower than the rubber mount. The spacers take up the slack, so the motor doesn't move along the long bolt.
