which motor mounts

[ghammer]

which motor mount do the prothane inserts fit into?

[slowion2]

00-02 stamped steel dogbone mounts

[ghammer]

will they fit my 92 SL?.....i used to know this stuff but ive been drifitng away from the saturn community since ive started college

thanx

[slowion2]

yes they will fit, HOWEVER on 91's I know for sure they have a funky piston style mount under the crank pulley instead of a dogbone. they also have no TAM. I want to say that the 92's are like that also, but I forget off the top of my head. I am sure someone will chime in and verify this.

[DasPirate]

I've never seen a 92 with the piston/cable mount

[slowion2]

well like I had said, I know it was on 91's but I don't know for sure if 92's had them. I want to say yes but I might be wrong.

[ghammer]

well i hav SDA's on now (if that helps [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_question.gif[/img] )....im just replacing them with the prothane ones......only prob is that i need a pair of dogbones to fit the pair of prothane inserts i have

[slowion2]

well they yeah you're fine they'll fit just the same

how bad/worn are the SDA's?

[d3ad1ysp0rk]

Why would you replace them..? The SDAs are the best on the market.

But hell, if you're replacing them, I'll buy your old SDAs from you. I'm buying a new project car that'll need them.. [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif[/img]

no justin....you have some already...i need em...lol

[ghammer]

well i dont mean to rat on them...cuz they are good people, a good company, and make quality parts....but when i bought them, for some odd reason when i went to put the bolts into the holes on the mount there was WAY too much play between the bolt and the hole.......so i attempted to press (what i would call) "shims" into the hole to kind of close the gap around the bolt...my automotive teacher even thought that the gap was strange......i contacted them and they said that they never had any complaints about them so i just kept them the way i had them......and now im goin to replace them

so i prob wont sell them for the simple fact that i dont know how reliable they are since i pressed the "shims" into the mount...sry

[d3ad1ysp0rk]

Hmm.. ok. I have a 99 sl2, and when Craig and I installed mine, we had a LOT of play as well. However, screwing the bolts in tight made it so there wasn't really any way to pull on it.. so idk. I've ran them for a few months now with no problems.

[ghammer]

yea......ive had mine for about 10 months or somethin like that....im just kinda nervous......people here at school call me a perfectionist when it comes to doing our objectives on cars......like using the little sand wheel to help take out some of the ridges from the cutter when turning the rotor....idk i like alittle extra insurance

[slowion2]

well shit I need a set for a project car, I'll take them off your hands dude lol

I understand where you're coming from though

Vin, I pulled two sets of the stamped mounts and sent one set to Heath. I still have the other set so, worse comes to worse, I can order another set of the poly inserts and slap them into the project car.
