Let me guess... I broke a diff mount? Everytime you hit or release the gas pedal, there is a big CLUNK in the right rear area of the car.....

*** a Duck...

 

yep: Rear diff mount I have some used ones cheap

 

replace it SOON! I have broken u joints on drive shafts by not getting it done quickly.

 

yep, broken diff mount my friend.

 

I wonder if the mounts on my 86 N/A will fit my 88 TII?

 

Dont know- But the comp mounts are only $60 brand new-

 

I just want to get the damn thing back on the road..

 

Im not sure if the 86 NA mounts would work. Do the open difs and lsd's have the same mount positions?

 

that sounds the same as when my U Joint went out, if thats the case youll need to Pull the whole shaft out. I would get under the car and shake the u joints if there's any movent betewwn the jounts thats your problem. From all thoes track trips i guess.

 

I dont know...I already paid for the ones from banzaitoyota, but I want the car back on the road. I need the garage for the S4/S5 swap on another car

 

how hard are they to replace?

 

I'll ship yours out Saturday. You need to drop the rear subframe. BELIEVE ME ITS EASIER!!!!!

 

you know what? its the damn front mount, not the back ones

 

Drop the rear subframe? What the hell is that?

 

yeah. the differential has a front mount. That is what usually breaks. If you keep breaking them, WELD It.

 

It was welded, the weld broke!

I already ordered the Mazdatrix race mount.

Must've been a crappy weld...

 

When I had my side draft dellorto on a streetported motor, I broke 2 good welds after the "normal" mount was replaced 2 times.

 

Mines welded on two sides using substantial plate to bridge the gaps. Breaking is not a concern of mine.

 

Do you have any pictures of that setup? I need to weld mine up and am looking for examples. THANKS!

(EEK didnt notice how old this post was hehe) Anyways, anybody have pix of a good double welded diff mount?

 

replacing that front mount is a bitch drop the whole subframe it will actually save you some time and alot of headache.

 

Well the plan is to just weld it, but I need some example pictures before I just jump right into it.

 

Pinion snubber and a comp. mount.....

 

ooooorrrrr weld and not drop the rear. Weld it is. gg

 

Orrrrr don't do it half-assed and do it the right way pinion snubber and comp mounts. I don't think I've heard of this setup breaking, but yet I've heard of several welded ones snapping. Also, the is less vibration with a proper mount.
