Found a Broken Motor Mount.

The big bracket that goes over the valve cover and connects to the engine on my L36 broke one of the "ears" off of the holes for the dogbone bolt. Does any parts stores sell any? Id Like to have my car back by tomorrow.
 


check a local salvage yard....pretty sure there will be at least one w-body there.

People also use to remove one of them while there were at the track to get rid of weight...whatever that worth?
 
On my old GT I broke 2 of them and ended up upgrading to a cast bracket from the GTP's.. Make sure your lower mounts are good too before you replace that bracket.
 
i broke that little **** as well. do you still have the steel bracket going to the head? If not, get that as well as new bracket from the wrecker.
 
Ya the drivers side is still in good shape and is hooked up. Doesnt seem too big of an issue right now seeing that the LS4 uses only one dogbone. When I see one in a non-burned GP at the wreckers Ill pick one up.
 


My drivers side bracket broke as well. Got a new one at the dealer for $30

The H-Body's don't even HAVE dogbones...if that makes you feel any better ;)

I know my mom's '03 LeSabre I did LIM gaskets on didn't have them and I was like wth is this noise when I popped the hood.
 


FYI the car is still running with said broken mount. Im too lazy to replace it, and the whole "no-grand prix-in-any-junkyard" situation Im in isnt helping me either.

Car is going away in 2 months anyways... Ill put it off till then.
