rocking engine?

[metz]

I've swapped the engine and box mounts for new ones as they were well worn and since then theres a clunking as if the whole engine and box moves when i change gear. it feels terrible. all the mounts are tight and in right. Also when i start the car it sounds as though the exhaust hits the bottom of the car now too for a few seconds. reversing is worse. and the gearbox vibrates to shit on the subframe on overun. help...

Did you use standard ones or poly ones?

[metz]

Standard ones fella.

Are they done up too much? Did you flatten the mounts if so it just vibrates the cab to much

[z3i]

I found the standard ones a bit too soft and the engine moved around quite a bit, so went for poly ones and is much better

Thanks taylor

I just did them tight. i didn't know any torque settings.
Where do we get poly mounts from now taylor?

I got mine from Phil j on here but I think he ran out might be worth a pm

is it possible that the engine & box have moved slightly?  and it's not moving any more than it was before but because of a different position the exhaust is hitting making it feel like it's moving more.  With the mounts loose the engine & box will move about quite a bit so the position can have changed.
