I need to get all new mounts...especially the diff mount. I had mine replaced with a new Mazda one and there is so much slop it drives me nuts.

the only thing that's keeping me from ordering them off of mazdamotorsport's website, is that I can't find them.
If anyone has the part number for them, that would be helpful.

If you install the Delrin differential mounts you will probably eliminate the need to replace the front mount. Front mounts had been a problem when guys were running the 5.12 gear set in a road racing environment. A few of my customers had this problem, and when they made the switch to the Delrin mounts, the problem vanished.

I just ordered up the engine mounts myself. $25 for the stiffer ones. I might also pick up the diff mount, but that and the tranny mounts are gonna be expensive since I just picked up an A/F gauge, pod, and am gonne get a BOV too... damn these things get expensive quick

You have to drop the entire rear end. Not too hard, but can be heavy and take some time.

Tommorow, Sundays project is a rear mount. Now I broke a motor mount too Would the 6 puck unsprung hub have anything to do with it?

Exactly how hard is it to replace motor and tranny mounts? I broke the rear diff. front mount, and am considering just replacing all of them with Mazda Comp. mounts.

Tranny is easy.

Motor mounts.... tough. You either gotta have the engine out or dropped front member to get them easily. You could try just unbolting them and trying to jack up the engine, but AIR, there wasn't enough clearance available to get them out. Worth a shot though.

I didn't have AC and I had plenty of room. Other than loosing a nut and searching for 15 minutes, it would've taken about 30 minutes start to finish. Just get a piece of wood or something and jack from the rear of the bell housing
