2V Engine Mounts

[ZR]

Oh come on now. I did one when the engine was on a stand. That was almost tolerable…

Both the 2V n 4V look like a reasonable job in the car......................right up til your ballz in with no turning back.

Glad it was obviously the problem. Nothing worse than opening something up only to find out it wasn’t the problem.

There were enough signs that I felt confident that even if this isn't cause of issue, it was still a problem or at the very least would wake me up in the night a few times. Also before I committed to removing starter and all the other fun I undid the large 21mm nut from mount to k frame that's easily accessible with an impact, then lifted motor up a bit. Doing that I could feel how much slop was in the mount which then told me to go ahead and pull it.

^ Starter have all three bolts?

It may only have 2...

Rare we get one in with all in place, upper can be a bitch.

I was running all three until last time I pulled the PS exhaust manifold. Lost one and just slammed it back on two. One day when I pull motor to do a complete reseal I'll address that. ONE DAY

I appear to have added a vibration by doing this. Neat.

shiat.

Yea this feels more like harmonics, I gotta get under the car with the wheels loaded and check my pinion angle. Also noticed theres a fair bit of side to side play in rear end so gotta check upper diff bushings.

Well driveshaft bolts were all finger tight and the pinion angle was set to positive 7 degrees…SO GLAD I PAID FOR SOMEONE TO ADJUST AND DIAL IN REAR SUSPENSION. *sigh*

Tightened up DS bolts, set pinion angle off the trans output angle. See how it goes when I get a chancr to drive it again
