i have an sir2 swap in my hatch aand just my luck the transmission mount breaks its been welded before but lets just say ive seen better. i didnt know if frame mounts had to be moves and welded or not for the swap. if you could pst pics of your engine mount positions that would be appreciated. and i was also wandering what your opinion would be on bolting the frame side of the mount back to the frame with some grade eight bolts (i know it sounds ghetto).mine has basically fallin off of its position by the pass wheel well. lol so hit me up guys.

 

Alright well I guess ill be the first I think it will hold with the right bolts ill let you know how it goes when I'm done

 

iff your mount broke hows new bolts gonna help?weld it back together if your cheap orrr buy a new mount....

 

Here's the deal its not the engine or hasport side of the mounting assembly its the frame tab which if you can picture it? Peeled off of the side of the frame rail which leaves a decent plate to bolt through and to the frame rail to the inside of the wheel well. What do you think? I only consider this because people cringe when they see the type of metal they have to work with to weld it back (thin sheet to frame thick sheet)

 

Do you have any pics so we can better see what you're dealing with?

 

How exactly do you post pics to the forum? I'm new at this sorry but I have a pic ready

 

At the bottom of the post where it says reply hit go advanced then scroll down where it says manage attachments. You can upload from there.

 

hope this worked lol

 

man that sucks dude
haha honestly I would bolt it and also weld it, to be on the safe side

 

I was thinkin that too. bolting it is somethin I can do pretty easily on my own untill I get access to a welder I guess. so ill try it out if anything it'll be good reinforcment thanks for the opinion man

 

how the EF does that happen!
