no, no i can make a bushing. i don't know where to get the material, like what type and how strong. hasport,and others dont specif what type of urethane. so thats what i need to know.

high-grade polyurethane if you want it stiff.

soft-poly if you dont want to be shaken.

go onto McMaster.com they sell a 2 part urethane in different levels of durameter. hasport use a 66 A Shore durameter on their street mounts and 88 A Shore on their race mounts. mcmaster sells it by the pound. and that is more than enough to do 4-6 mounts. just set up a jig to place the center slug in place based off of the mount, block off the bottom half of the mount. mix and pour at room temp. and in 2 days it will be fully cured. here is the part number for the 80 A shore durameter p/n 8644K11. good luck, this is how i am making my own aftermarket motor mounts.

If all else fails, you can buy individual urethane sets from Hasport's online store.

ive always just used the polyurathane roof sealant from home depot, in a tube.. you have to do a little at a time because its no a two part material. so it has to dry thinner. This stuff seems like it will work ALOT!!! better. thanks again!

i would think that it would be better to keep the stock rubber in there and just reinforce the stock mount with the urethane. just gotta make sure it bonds to the rubber good. i sanded down the rubber w/ small wheel brush bits and grinding drill bits. dont plan on making crazy power so these should hold up as well as inserts if not better.

Maybe find someone willing to sandblast the heck out of the old mount to give it a rough CLEAN surface to pour into?

I could do it for you once it warms up around here. My Marco SB is in need of a wake from its winter nap

the company that makes the urethane also sells a rubber primer. i didnt bother with it just roughed up the rubber really good. havent had any cracking issues. its holding up alot better than my windo weld mount.
