RobertISaar Posted February 27, 2010 Report Posted February 27, 2010 that's hydraulic. want to know why? rockauto lists the anchor 2796 as hydro, and the part number for the one you're looking at is A2796HY, which says to me: Anchor 2796 hydraulic. Quote

digitaloutsider Posted February 27, 2010 Report Posted February 27, 2010 AutoZone seems to be the only one that sells the solid mount. I can't find it anywhere else. Quote
RobertISaar Posted February 27, 2010 Report Posted February 27, 2010 IIRC, the solid ones from autozone are actually cheaper than the hydraulic ones... Quote

Napa do you know how much? and the one on autozone is more expensive than the hydraulic ones ive seen Dont screw with ebay to save $10 THey all run around the $50-$60 range with LIFETIME warrenty. Good luck with a warrenty on some pos mount off ebay or any mount for that matter. Quote
mfewtrail Posted February 27, 2010 Report Posted February 27, 2010 Avoid NAPA for the solid mount unless you have a store very close by. The solid mounts there were a crapshoot years ago. Right part # on the box, but hydraulic mounts in the box the majority of the time. It took me three tries to finally get a solid one from there years ago. Quote

RobertISaar Posted February 27, 2010 Report Posted February 27, 2010 "Low Cost Temporary Solid Rubber Replacement For Hydraulic Type Mount, Does Not Meet OE Specifications" sounds like it to me! only a 12 month warranty though. Quote

White93z34 Posted February 27, 2010 Report Posted February 27, 2010 I have a autozone solid mount on my z34, been a few years now and its held up great. I have the part numbers listed in the Parts number thread. Quote
96oldsmobubble Posted February 28, 2010 Report Posted February 28, 2010 I just purchased the Napa solid mount a couple months ago, havent put it in yet. The best way I could tell was to have both their solid mount and their hydraulic mount side to side and shake both of them to make sure they are different. The hydraulic mount you can hear the fluid as you shake it. I will post the part number of the solid I got, when I get home. Quote
96oldsmobubble Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 part number on the box of this solid mount from Napa is: 612-1730. Let me know how it turns out if you get one. Quote
Hairdo12 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 I got the solid mount from Advance Auto about a year ago for $35. I did have to slightly adjust the mounting bolts however before it would fit. Quote

Hairdo12 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 Bottom two bolts that bolt to the pad on the cradle needed to be spread apart a bit because they are not completely parallel. I just used my vise and two small blocks of wood to protect the threads. Quote

joeld Posted March 2, 2010 Report Posted March 2, 2010 I installed the solid mount from Napa #612-1730 last year on my 95 GP. It was about $42.00. So far it seems to be fine. Joel Quote
