Make Your Own Motor Mounts - Here's How
Re: Make Your Own Motor Mounts - Here's How (ZiG)
You're kidding right? The flexane gets sandwiched in between the washers. Just use a little less to compensate for the 1/4" the washers add. Doing it this way spreads out the contact surface area and prevents the uneven compression in the places that Greg mentioned. Do it any way you want, I'm offering up a suggestion to improve an already great idea. Greg knows I don't ghetto rig anything.ZiG wrote:lol, yeah, put a washer top and bottom, wtf would you even need the flexane for!

Not sure - You'd want to look at compressibility and tensile strength.qat727 wrote:
I saw this when you first posted it up and I still think it's a great idea. I do have a question, though. Do you think it might be a little more civilized if you used Flexane 80 instead?
There's nothing "civilized" about a 400-hp convertible with 400 lbs of weight removed.

Oh, i thought you meant fix the washers with nuts just as it is in the middle, which, of course, would put the load pretty much entirely on the threaded bolt.98s14inaz wrote:

Are these threaded rods graded?AZhitman wrote:(2) 4" 12x1.25 allthread rods (Ace Hardware has them)
