My bracket is too wide to fit my car, I attached pics. It get wedged and the motor mount wont tighten straight Sorry if the pics are hard to see, they were taken with my cell phone.

use some warming gel itll make it just *slide* right in

[clevelander2002]

will it straighten it out when I toque it all the way?

[Kevinedwards05]

It will rub. Those pic's are good enough to see that the hole pattern is off. Don't use them.

[clevelander2002]

well, I started from scratch and supported the engine better. Its still real tight but I think it'll work.

[Kevinedwards05]

It shouldn't be tight. That upper mount housing is cast aluminum and will crack relatively easily if pressured from the wrong direction.

i'm going to compare the picture you've got up to the ones installed on my car as soon as i leave work. i can't really see the picture on this monitor to see how close it is

is it up against the aluminum part of the mount?

[Kevinedwards05]

Actually, you could probably use a die grinder and oblongate the hole more to the angle and get enough clearance.
