RussDinoGuy's 02 GT "Slowkar" Less Slow Now

Re: RussDinoGuy's 02 GT "Slowkar" (FIXED FOR NOW)

I'm gonna say this one last time.

If you receive a solid motor mount that happens to have hydraulic fluid, it's most likely boxed wrong or the company who made it sucks. The solid mount I got from NAPA for my 97 was solid. Later on when the car was totaled and I parted it out, I took the solid mount out to keep but it was bent and had a crack right down the middle. No fluid was ever in the mount. Unfortunetly I couldn't even warranty the mount because it only had a 1 year warranty.

I tried to get another solid mount from NAPA later on for Sam's car but the one they had was boxed wrong because I could hear fluid when I shook it. I also saw the part number on the mount had HY on it but the box said S.

Got some round poly bushings off a member on here for a great deal, installed them and i rocked the car back and forth and the motor didnt move at all.

These were so much easier to install than i thought, press old bushing out. Lube new stuff and slide in with love taps from a rubber mallet.

Oh I forgot. Bill wants you to have the square polys he left. They are offset so it makes it like you have shorter dog bones.

Also I had got another diff cover and put a new seal on it. Really don't know if I want to try and mess with the leaky seal or not anymore its not a huge problem as it was before.

I still need to do lower mounts and I sometimes get a random pop/click type sounds from the driver side when I click the cruise off or let off the gas fast I'm thinking its the trans mount but I'm not sure.

Front end and rear end still clunks but I think its my sway bar bushings/links/bar itself. No noticeable breaks/cracks but the car seems to have a ton of body roll unless its normal for my suspension setup I have lol. The ass just seems really loose when swaying the car side to side. I've also thought about upgrading TA/s and lateral links but time will tell.
