Default Speed-Source Polyurethane Engine mounts... Pics inside

I told you guys we would deliver - and so here we have some pictures for you

We have the spools and mounts all fabbed up and test fitted for one of the mounts - here is a teaser picture here



Then the other mount is a little bit more difficult, but nothing that can't be done for you tC lovers... These are a couple pictures of the stock mount





As you can see - it would not be possible to drop in one of our red mounts into this motor mount - so we are going to design a CNC laser cut steel bracket that will replace this mount and have one of our red polyurethane mounts pressed into a new housing we design. On top of that , the spool for the center of this mount is a different diameter than other mounts we have made - so we will have to change that up.

One question for you guys - note that these are only for the manual transmission scions... when we ordered our test mounts from toyota, the automatic mounts were a different part number. Does anybody know the physical difference between the 2?

When all is said and done - I am quite confident you guys will really like these mounts. We are the innovators - not duplicators - of the brass shifter cable bushings that we have been selling for years (along with a bunch of other 3sgte and mr2 parts on our site) Be happy there there will be more things to come for the scion market from us

cool, but looks like it will be tons of work getting those in, compared to the installation before

What before installation?

Pressing in the mounts is super easy, plus the new cnc'd mount is drop in and go. cant get much easier then that.

press in mounts are easy. I just use my bench vise.

How much for the rear press in mount? I already filled my front one with urethane. and it worked wonders!!

No worries - it is not going to be a ton of work - basically just remove the old mounts - hack out the old mount and replace it with new ones from us - and then on the CNC bracket mount - things should be even easier

Thanks for all the support and large interest guys! It is honestly fueling us to get these researched and produced quicker.
