Broken engine mount!

Post by crazyeyedgoat »

So ive been rolling around with a broken right hand engine mount and i can see its slowly taking its toll. what i wanted to know is if i could fit a different type of mount from say an evo or something? just not keen on waiting for japanese parts.

Your best and cheapest option is to get current mount rebuilt
