Title: For those who care...86-88 3.8 poly mounts...
Post by: Chuck W on November 30, 2006, 08:48:15 PM
I know not many folks here will be interested in these, but I'm getting the 3.8 mounts together for the MN-12 guys and they can be used on the Foxes as well (86-88)

Pics of the 86-93 3.8 mounts...

I just got the driver side mocked up.  The pass is going to be pretty much the same save for the base.  These will be jig built.

A couple pics of the comparison to the stocker

I'd get some if I didn't like the NVH isolation of my liquid filled mounts.

Understandable.  On a V6 the softer bushings aren't too bad, but no they aren't silky smooth.
I know they're not for everyone though.

Don't know yet....I JUST got that together tonight and posted up the pics. 

It may be a slow build-up....now I'm trying to get some stuff for the later SCs and the 4.6 stuff to round out the applications.

How much are you asking for a set of them?

Right now the pricing will be like the rest, $135-140/set depending on the bushings used.

I will have a couple sets in this initial prototype batch I'd sell for less as I had to make some tweaks to the lasered parts and figuring out the "assembly" order has left them not as nice as "production" pieces will be.  Going to be sending them off for plating next week.
