motor mounts melted?
here is a picture of my driverside motor mount. the passenger side mount is on its way to this but my rear mount looks brand new still. anyone have any idea of why this happened. ive bought these mounts back in 2002 and been using them ever since. i also heard if oil gets on these types of mounts that they will deteriorate. but i have never had a issue with oil ever getting on anything. has anyone seen this happen before or know why this happens so i can try to prevent this from happening agian.
what brand are the mount i had a set of hasport mounts that are like from the 90s befor i went to hydro tranny and they are still mint i say cheep aftermarket mounts thats all and good aftermarket mounts like hasport have better qaulity materials in them than oem thats why you should have aftermarket good mounts for big power so your motor dosent go crazy under the hood
looks like mounts are in the sun and got dry and are cracking away, just like old bushings on car. maybe just getting old or cheap material. just buy new motor mounts inserts and your good to go, no need to buy new mounts. those looks like rubber mounts get some polyurtherr mount inserts or whatever they call it - the red mounts but they also ciome in black and other colors.

Those are, without a doubt, some sort of aftermarket mounts. OE mounts last like 15 years. IT looks like those got filled with road tar or something.
edit: I stand corrected.. apparently they are hasport mounts..

they have been in my car since day one with the same running engine. i got some really cheap aftermarket mounts to get this thing running for autocross this sunday. and was going to look for some of those inserts i hear about, but im having trouble finding them. could someone throw me a website that sells inserts alone?
really.. i will definitly give them a call then. i thought about that but being 8 years old and no proof of purchase i didnt think twice. thanks. i probably got the ones that were build on a monday or friday.. ill make sure i request for a wednesday built set..
Bump for Hasport customer service! You will not find any other mount company that seeks out customers to offer a warranty to. Thumbs up for customer service!
