I talked to a guy from Schumacher Creative Services at the Seattle Mopar show last weekend and he said they are now stocking motor mounts for early A-bodies, but that they are not listed in their ads. He did warn that they are not US made.

206-364-7151

Probably the Anchor-brand items. Those were from Mexico ten years ago, probably from Taiwan or Malaysia or China by now.

Such a simple rubber block...I wish Schumacher or Imperial Services would make us some polyurethane ones so that we could replace the mounts once and never think about them again!

If there's enough interest, I could probably have a batch of motor mounts for '63-'66 A-bodies made myself. Doesn't take a big company to make parts that simple. Here's what I have in mind:

1. American made
2. Polyurethane rubber
3. Failsafe design - if the rubber breaks, the mount will still hold together
4. Transmission mounts, too

If I could get them at a decent price, who'd want a pair?

If the price is reasonable, I would be.

Those'll actually suit '62 to '66 Valiant, Dart, Lancer and Barracuda with slant-6, plus some '61 Valiant & Lancer with 225, plus Australian SV1, AP5 and AP6 with slant-6.
Yep, all sounds like the right way to do it. The polyurethane chosen shouldn't be too much harder than the original rubber.
These are already readily available for the '62-'72 A-bodies, in rubber or polyurethane.
Meeeeee!

Ok, let me add one more thing to my list of specs: Powder coated. Any other things they ought to have?

Well, OK, are we maybe talking about not only reproducing the stock mounts, but maybe improving on them? I've had a few ideas on that front over the years...the stock '62-'66 style mounts work OK, nothing really wrong with them, but there are stronger designs that are better in one or more ways. I'm thinking for example of the vertical-shear mounts that were used in the '60-'61 A-bodies (and in the trans mount from '62-'72).

I'd be interested in a couple pair as well.

ok, while we're on the subject, does anyone know of a source for poly motor mounts for '67 up a-bodies? Specifically a 1970 Dart, 225, A904, etc....?

Application is '62-'72 A-body, all engines, all transmissions. Source is Imperial Services. Not sure why they bothered making a 2-stud model for '61-'65; the 1-stud unit originally found in '66-'72 services the older applications, too. Oh well, there you are!

I'm good for a set or two.

Growing older is unavoidable but growing up is strictly optional.

I'm afraid I'm not seeing any motor mounts on that page.... Just Transmission mounts. What am I missing?

Thanks,

Nat

Whoops, sorry, my error, I misread your question. You were asking about motor mounts, and for some strange reason I thought you needed a trans mount. AFAIK nobody makes polyurethane engine mounts for '67-'72 Slant-6 A-bodies.

Matt,

I'm in for a set of improved mounts. More than one set if the price is good.

Hey Matt,

I'm with Lou, put me in for a set, and if they are cheap enough I'll have two.
