Do I really need those little "cup" things that sit between the mount and the frame of the car? My gxl did not come with them when I took the engine out BUT my SE did. I installed the engine into the GXL and I forgot to put on the drivers side "cup". Do I really need this??

 

Uh, are you referring to the rubber portion of the mount?

 

I dunno? Does your engine shake like a rabbit on crack?

i didnt put mine back in when i changed the engine. i really havent noticed a difference. i mean really.. what could they do? its just like putting another surface in between the mount and subframe. it cannot move because the bolt it tightened. I think its just there to give the rubber a bit of protection

 

heres a picture of it

 

up we go

 

we dont want to see pics of your pot bowl! damn druggo

 

Those cup things are there just to prevent chemicals (especially engine oil) from splashing all over the rubber engine mounts.&nbsp It also shims the engine higher just a bit.&nbsp You really don't need them if you can't easily replace them...
