While pulling everything apart on the tib I noticed something that apparently I'd missed before. The front motor mount seems to be missing a bushing. I see a couple solutions to this:

1. try to find a stock bushing
2. make one with some pipe
3. drill out bracket on the transmission and use larger bolt.

I dont know if they are the same size or not, but I have a side mount (the one by the timing belt) that it shot, I could cut the bushing out and send it to you if you'd like.

I'll take a look. I've got all mounts out. I looked at the rear one and it just has a smaller hole it it.

after more research it appears to me that this is the way it was designed.... I'm gonna head over to the hardware store tomorrow and fix it.



btw, when I did my poly bushings I removed the half moon pieces and filled the rest with window weld.
