Default Passenger Motor Mount

Anyone know anything about the construction of this mount? It appears to be some type of fluid filled mount. I think I somehow damaged it during one of the engine pull/reinstalls, that or the 500+wtq lol. It has a ton of free play in the actual mount point where the bracket from the timing chain cover bolts down to it, and when revving the car, you can actually see that side of the engine move. Ive been thinking about tearing it apart, getting all the fluid out of it, than filling it with liquid urethane Just wondering if this is possible or if anyones done it. FYI, the rest of my mounts are all the solid poly-u mounts.

Idk about that but if it Worl please let me know mine is torn up also. I think we where talking about that last time I was at your place. I wonder what all the drag guys use maybe we should try getting ahold of them and asking them because all my mounts are also solid but I feel that that mount is just made crappy and easily broken.

i used the poly urethane injection gun to fill mine. got it free from window installer. it was best to fill a little, let dry fill some more, and let dry process. when i filled one complete, it wouldn't dry. even with a heat gun and letting it sit out for days.
