kfahn Posted May 25, 2003 Report Posted May 25, 2003 what is this, saw it on http://fastfwdperformance.com/db.htm, have no idea what exactly it is for... Quote
supreme_style21 Posted May 25, 2003 Report Posted May 25, 2003 It's the upper motor mount in your engine compartment. Quote
Robby1870 Posted May 25, 2003 Report Posted May 25, 2003 the poly-u bushings almost completely stop the motor from rocking back when you hit the gas, therefore, more of the momentum from the power of the motor gets to the wheels, and is not wasted when the motor rocks back. Robby Quote
Lee Posted May 26, 2003 Report Posted May 26, 2003 Do you think this would be an easy way to avoid changing out a lower motor mount that is about done? Or would it just stress it more? Quote
Robby1870 Posted May 26, 2003 Report Posted May 26, 2003 Well, with the poly dogbones, you would prolly notice the bad motor mount even more. From what I have heard, with the poly dogbones, you can feel more engine vibration. I would say, get the motor mount changed, then do poly dogbones, should be good to go for a long time Robby Quote

ismellrealbad Posted May 26, 2003 Report Posted May 26, 2003 they need to make some 3100 mounts Quote
Robby1870 Posted May 26, 2003 Report Posted May 26, 2003 arent the 3.1L and 3100 dogbones BASICALLY the same? Like same size and bolt holes and all that stuff? Robby Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted May 26, 2003 Report Posted May 26, 2003 Yeah, they should be exactly the same. The only difference would be the piece that the dogbone bolts to in the front. Some are made different. Do you still have your '89 Rob? take a dogbone from it and put it on your other GP to see if it fits. Quote
ismellrealbad Posted May 26, 2003 Report Posted May 26, 2003 na i sold that a while ago. all i have left is a good healight switch for a digital cluster..........and 2 white gp rims lol Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted May 26, 2003 Report Posted May 26, 2003 What do the brackets on your GP look like? Are they like the ones that were on your '89? I need that headlight switch. What do the rims look like? Are they like mine? PM me. Quote
Heza Posted May 27, 2003 Report Posted May 27, 2003 they need to make some 3100 mounts umm...ismellrealbad...for that...i'm sure you can use mounts for another car as long as everything fits real nice. they're pricey though for motor mounts. my buddy put them on his '70 Mustang, and they cost $200.

Brian P Posted May 27, 2003 Report Posted May 27, 2003 Smelly, if you really want them, just get the dogbone brackets (the ones that bolt to the tie-bar) from a 2.8-3.1 W-body, but I'm telling ya keep the ones you have, they are a good quality correct working set of mounts. I got a set for my car off a 95 Cutlass. They never fail or fall apart like the older 2.8-3.1 type Quote
