So I had a new exhaust installed a few months ago and last week where the long pipe connects to the pipe coming from the cat...the gasket broke causing a leak and a lawnmower sound. My mechanic fixed it free of charge but said it looked like the whole pipe had shifted causing this. He said a bad motor mount may be the culprit. I am hoping this doesn't happen again but if it does, how much do motor mounts cost to be replaced...does it require removing the whole engine to access them?

I had an 86 cougar that had to be junked due to rusted out mounts. I hate road salt!!

See this thread on NPORA.

Check RockAuto for relatively inexpensive parts. I don't think you'll need to remove the engine to access them.

Offtopic - But qxxx4, do you happen to know his email address or anything? I did some searching cause i remembered him mentioning his is lowered, and i found that he had his coils made by a friend or something who working in a spring factory.

Im really interested, cause for 1 i think he got them done for cheap, and i wouldnt mind throwing him some cash for a set, and 2, his avatar in NPORA, i like the stance and low, my 2inchers arent that low in the front and id defenitly throw those on.

Let me know, ty.
