1.3 motor mounts

[jimmyroyse]

I broke the typical driver side mount and need a new one. question is who sells a quality replacment?
I know rockrat has a poly one in the works but isn't avalible yet, roadless gear has "HD" mounts for a good price?
anybody opions?

let me find out for you today,but,there is a dodge mount you can get from checkers or auto zone that fits with some drilling on the frame mount.

just my two cents....but the roadless gears one i got are alot bigger and more tough then stock. when i flipped my zook over on the road the broke the driver side...it took about a week to get the new motor mounts...but after drilling out the holes and placeing them back in there...i still have not had any problems with them and when i flipped my zook was about 4 or 4 and half years ago...so my two cents...get the roadless gear ones...plus they are lifetime guaitiend (spelling sucks)

Dodge 318 mounts are about $3.00 ea. They are designed to hold the HP and torque of the dodge 318 so they will definately hold the 1.3 or 1.6

thanks,i forgot to get that today.
dead tired,worked on 31/2 hours of sleep today:shocked!:

I thought the 318 mounts were only for the 1.6 swap? how much work is there to use these with a 1.3?

[Itsmejoe231]

The mounts can be used with the 1.3 as well. all you will have to do is drill out the bolt holes for the 318's. there are some venders that will sell you the 318 mount for $30 when they only paid $3 for them.

Do the 318 mounts change the height or angle of your motor?

[Itsmejoe231]

I have not compared the two side by side but i do know they are both offset. If the are different it is not by much. It is about a one inch offset on the 318 mounts.

Because these are the exact same product. Compare my pic above and the pic on their website.

Spend your $20 plus s&h at roadless gear, I will spend my $3.00 at my local parts house.
