whats that one silicone that you can use to make your own solid motor mounts?

 

McMaster has some poly products that you can use. I'm pretty sure you are thinking of window weld though.

 

yeah it was something like that b4 but i forgot what is was

thanks thats what i was looking for

 

has anyone done this to mounts that were in pretty bad condition?

I have a few other mounts to try this on, but they are worn!

 

is it bad to do this just to one or two motor mounts?
will it break other mounts ?

i've just did my left mount,tomorrow gonna do the 2 smaller mounts and the others 2 gonna stay stock

 

Why don't you just get energy suspension motor mount inserts?

 

Because you can do the job for $40 or less with 2 tubes of Window Weld and not end up with squeak or lube maintenance that often accompanies ES mounts.

 

I don't want track stable engine,just a little stiffer then stock and also hate rattling enterior

 

Window weld is what you want if you can put up with a little bit of vibration, inserts vibrate much more, and 70a poly mounts youre girlfriend is basically squirming in her seat the engine resonates the car/steering wheel/rear view

One tube of window weld will do 3 mounts. Dont cheap out and buy pl premium or caulking or anything stupid like that, if youre going to fill them, fill with window weld

 

I filled it with some other window weld poly hardness 50-55A that's near rubber but the whole mount is now full so there is no room for play,i'll see what gonna happen in 2-3 days when i'm gonna mount it

 

Only 3m makes a product called window weld, what did you use

 

totalseal 110 for same use different brand,i would buy 3m but local stores didn't had,so this was my alternative

btw hardness 60A and the price just 6$ lol

 

Good luck with it, you could have bought the 3m from Napa guess you didnt look there eh

Where did you pull 60a hardness from? I see zero info on the product on the net being used in this application

 

I've also seen people use coolant or fuel line hosing to fill the gaps. Adds a little more support but not the stiffness of window weld.

 

dude i'm from macedonia no napa here :D

and the info i got it from www.totalseal.net

 

And here is my rear motor mount PAIN IN THE *** to take out after 2 hours of making diy tools,and 3 hours moving things so i can get to the mount







so what do u say,will silicone help here or i need new mount,anyone done that bad mount with silicone?

 

If you can set the metal bushing back to where it belongs (easy), then you will be fine using windowweld to fill the open gaps.

 

after all it will cost me huh 3$,and 2 hours work for removing if it breaks
deff gonna give it a try

and yes it's very easy to put it on place cause on the pic the mount is upside down

 

After 2 weeks driving the mount looks solid as steel,i think gonna do the job for a long time
