Default Motor mounts

What is everyone using for replacement motor mounts? I just need the 2 polyurethane mounts that attach to the motor and im going to keep the stock ones that attach to the k member.

Thanks!

how do you replace the poly mounts inside of the steel case? My stock rubber is inside of the steel case by big rivits

You drill the rivets out and bolt the clamshell around the poly mount.

you also have to wire brush all the leftover rubber crap after splitting the shells.....I used a good quality water proof grease in the shell and on the poly to ensure there was no squeaking from the poly moving in the shell

the bolts to hold the shells together are included in the prothane kit....the bolts only hold the shells together until the mounts are bolted to the block
