View Full Version : Wanna fill one of your Tranny mounts with Urethane?

I've ordered a 1lb container of the 80A Flexible Urethane compound for filling the front and rear motor mounts.

But since I have already filled the rear one, I only need half of this bottle. So if anyone needs a mount filled, and wants to split the cost of the material (costing you a whopping $16), I will happily help fill one of yours as well.

This is what they look like if you don't know what I'm referring to.

By filling it with this solid urethane, you will help to eliminate wheel hop, and transfer more power to the ground.

There are several different hardnesses to the urethane (60, 80, and 94) that can affect the amount of vibrations transmitted to the cabin, and I went with the one in the middle. This is to get a nice compromise between comfort and performance.

Anyway, I'm going to be filling mine next week, so if you want to do yours as well. Let me know ASAP.

I'm interested, but how much work is it gonna take?

You'll have to take off your mount (consult shop manual for directions), bring it up here with you, and then we tape off one side of it, and then fill from the other.

The hardest part would be taking it off your car. But we can't do that here, because once we've poured the Urethane, it takes many many hours to set (preferably a day or two) ... so you wouldn't be able to drive home safely.

So lemme know if you'd like to rubber up with me :naughty:

I'd hate to waste half a container ;)
