88835, Solid passenger mount? Posted by extreme97nt, Apr-28-05 01:59 PM
Would there be any downside if I were to make a solid passenger mount for my 2.4? I will also be using a solid front mount. I am not consirned with vibration to much as this is going to be a track car. Any info would be great.

its CRAZY vibration on the inside of the cab....just to let you know
something is ferocious and extremely unhappy under the hood, but what? who really knows...

Hmm I need to find a better rubber mount to work with then. I made a mount but I am not completely happy with it. Time for #2.

same boat i was in man...
i ended up cutting out the stock rubber mount and leaving the steel insert. i cut out a circular disc and marked the new bolt hole location and welded in some round bar. also welded the disc to the insert of the mount. its solid, and it works...but the cab vibration is gnarly. looks oem too unless you really look

I was thinking about cutting out the stock rubber mount to use as a starting point. It seems to be a bit beefier than the rubber mount I used on my first one. I will mess with it over the weekend.
