Default broken hasport mount pics...

i posted this https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=808849 a couple days ago and said i would post some pics. im sure the new mounts are stronger than these, but these mounts have been installed on a couple cars. and been put through a few years of use.




but dont worry hasport is taking care of me, i sent back my mount and as soon as they get it they are sending me a new prebillit mount to replace it. to hasport for customer service.

yeah at least it was the easiest mount to get too, All i had to do was support the motor, remove the starter, and undo the bolts. (I have a relocated battery so that wasnt in the way) didnt take much more than 20 minutes with hand tools.

also you can see how the bushing looks chewed up, and the rear lip was worn off, i dont know how long the mount has been broken, but about a week ago i didnt see that my motor was leaning.

Id imagine they will send you a billet one and the billet ones are much thicker around that area.

You may or may not have those mounts. The mounts pictured here are their original, welded style mounts. Back in ~2001, breakage of the ring around the bushings (as pictured) was quite common. So Hasport decided to make a similar style of mount that is made of heavier material. I know this because I have one of their first sets of these improved original (welded) style mounts. So if you purchased your kit between about spring 2001 and the time that they went with the billet kit, you should not have any problems. The improved 'classic' style mounts are distinguished from the first ones by the use of MUCH heavier material in the rings around the bushings on the driver's side and passenger side transmission mount. The rear mount is subject to ALOT less stress and didn't get the heavier material.

My hasport mounts are billet aluminum so I guess I won't be having this problem.!

Hasport will probably replace them with the newer better units.

Sounds shitty at least you would get another free one if it breaks again. but then you have to go through taking it out again and re-installing it.

to their customer service though
