blair_355 Posted July 9, 2005 Report Posted July 9, 2005 as title i need to know where i can get some engine mounts for a 4age to go in a ke30 corolla Quote
Super Jamie Posted July 9, 2005 Report Posted July 9, 2005 you buy a welder and some pieces of metal and some 2L ford rubbers and get to work guys from toyotastarletracing yahoo group sell kits to put them into kp61 starlets, but that's it Quote
demuire Posted July 9, 2005 Report Posted July 9, 2005 I used the standard engine mounts. Cut them off the stock location, move them further apart and reweld them back. I'm using AE86 rubber bits. Quote
Raven Posted July 9, 2005 Report Posted July 9, 2005 I'm using 4A-C engine mounts out of an AE86 sprinter. They bolt up to the standard engine crossmember :n: If you can find some, good luck. Quote
demuire Posted July 10, 2005 Report Posted July 10, 2005 Yours bolt up? Interesting. Mine bolted up, if I didn't use any rubber bits (as in, metal engine mounts to engine crossmember mounts). With the rubber bits it didn't it anymore, which is why I moved the mounts out further. Quote
Raven Posted July 10, 2005 Report Posted July 10, 2005 I'll get some pics as soon as i can borrow a digi cam and show ya. Thats why i was wondering why everyone was using AE71/AE86 crossmembers cos i'm still using the standard one. Quote
demuire Posted July 10, 2005 Report Posted July 10, 2005 That'll be cool. Mine is a standard crossmember, just with the stock mounts moved further apart. I thought of using the AE71 engine crossmember too, but it was too much work to get to fit. Much easier to just modify the stock one. Quote
Raven Posted July 22, 2005 Report Posted July 22, 2005 I got pics of my engine mounts, but i can't upload them cos i havent made enough posts yet... Damn that sucks! Quote
Raven Posted July 22, 2005 Report Posted July 22, 2005 These are the engine-mount pics people: Hope they help. Mick Quote
demuire Posted July 22, 2005 Report Posted July 22, 2005 Ah righty-o, so you've cut and welded the engine-side of the mounts then. Quote
Raven Posted July 22, 2005 Report Posted July 22, 2005 Well, i didnt, someone else did. Makes it far easier to sit the engine in the engine bay without modding the cross-member. Quote
Super Jamie Posted July 22, 2005 Report Posted July 22, 2005 (edited) yeah but that's not bolt in. how about we try NOT to mislead people, there's already enough bullshit on the net about cars as it is Edited July 22, 2005 by Super Jamie Quote
demuire Posted July 22, 2005 Report Posted July 22, 2005 (edited) I'm using 4A-C engine mounts out of an AE86 sprinter. They bolt up to the standard engine crossmember 15-smile.gif If you can find some, good luck. So this really should read "I'm using *modified* 4A-C engine mounts out of an AE86 sprinter"... And it's much of a muchness really. Modify engine side of the mounts or modify the crossmember mounts. Both require cutting, both require welding, neither is really easier than the other I don't think... Edited July 22, 2005 by demuire Quote
Raven Posted July 22, 2005 Report Posted July 22, 2005 I didnt know they WERE modified. You guys just confirmed it. As far as I was told, they were 4A mounts. Sorry for misleading anyone, it wasnt intentional. Quote
demuire Posted July 22, 2005 Report Posted July 22, 2005 For future reference, the stock 4AC/4AGE mounts don't have any visible welds in them. One (drivers side) is a bit like a stalk and I believe is cast: The other side (with the oil filter) is a folded sheet of steel: Quote
