Some more Motor Mount work

A little structure repair, and some shots of the motor mounts.


1. Before getting started I had to repair some damage done by the winds.
  
2. What led to the failure was this tube snapping off.

3. And this tub reciever being ripped off.
  
4. A little welding and a new cover later, and everything is back together.

5. Driver's side modified motor mount.
  
6. Passenger side.

7. My dad took them to work, cut them, and welded plates on closer to the engine.
  
8. Previously they stuck out too far, and had the wrong kind of mount.

9. Here are the two next to eachother.
  
10. These are the arms we will be using to go from the frame to the motor mounts.

11. I had to notch this one to clear the oil filter assembly.
  
12. And the other side. The white lines are marked level to show where to weld on the other part of the mounts.

13. This is the ingenious strap leveling system my dad came up with.
  
14. Here is how I will make the templates for where to cut the tabs.

Another step closer.

I forgot to take pictures of the mounts welded together, but I guess that can wait till next installment.
