    Motor mounts

    Are they the same as the mustangs or different.

    I love the smell of Nitromethane and rubber in the morning!

    That's one thing I have not read about is someone replacing their motor mounts, I guess the stock ones are the best.

    That's great! Amazing how many companies try and sell you things you don't need, that's why I ask! Now if ya'll excuse me, I have some muffler bearings to go buy...

    I have a pair of CVPI ones that were taken off of 2003 with 85k. They are still on good shape.

    RacerX, go ahead and spring for the headlight fluid, too.
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    Nope nobody makes an improved motor mount for our cars and the mustang one's are differnt.

    I tryed to get some made but not enough interest was shown.

    They do squat more over time but never heard of one actualy going bad and seperating from the mounting plate.
