Default Solid Motor Mounts

Who makes them. I have a BMR K-member. Does anyone have any experience with the Spohn ones??

The Spohn ones work great. No issues with them and I wouldn't hesitate to run them.

If you mean these. they won't work you have to either use a stock k member or a PA k member with out the integrated mounts.

Does your BMR use Stock type motor mounts bolted to the K-Member or does it have the gay crows foot that goes up to the stock motor mount rubber? If you can fit a stock motor mount (both pieces) on your BMR, a Spohn will work. If half the motor mount is built into the BMR you cannot use the Spohn motor mounts. At least not without modifying your K-Member.

I went ahead and got the chromoly k, picking up beer cans on the side of the road to contribute to my a-arm fund Sorry to get off topic....

The bolts that go into the block through the stock motor mount are a PAIN to get off. Its like they dip the bolt in loctite or something.....Hard to get to even with a PA k-member already in....Fun times/bloody times.....
