engine conversions / motor mounts (1941-79)
I. Oil Filters: Oil filters can be a real problem especially on Ford conversions. The filter on Ford engines is locate up front on
the driver's side, and this can interfere with the stock steering or suspension components. If additional clearance is needed, we
suggest a remote oil filter. We offer remote oil filter kits for most engines.
J. Motor Mount Installation: The motor mounts we manufacture are designed for specific applications, along with some
universal applications. Some are a bolt-in style, while others require welding. The universal mounts are designed to fit a variety
of frame widths. The channels that extend to the block are drilled in 1” increments, allowing choice of engine placement. In some
applications, you may be required to elongate one or both sides of these mounts for bolt hole alignment. Early Jeeps with a channel
frame should box-in their frame to provide a good, strong mounting surface.
“L” brackets on weld-in mounts should be welded entirely around the perimeter. All welding should be done by a certified welder.
When using a double donut design mount, make sure that the donuts properly index to the “L” bracket and the bolts are properly
tightened. Mount bolts should be checked periodically.
Once the engine has been selected, you will now need engine mounts. We offer several combinations that will fit Ford, Chevy, Dodge,
and Buick blocks. On most Ford and Chevy applications, we standardize our mounts by using a special dual rubber donut, locked
together with special hardened bolts. This combination offers a positive means of securing the engine for the most severe offroad
conditions.
Most of our mounts are universal and can be adjusted to accommodate the best possible engine location, while others are very
specific and offer no alternate for changes. Our Universal Chevy and Ford side mounts are the most popular style for Jeep and Scout
engine conversions. The mounts are furnished so that they can be either welded or bolted into position, and are fully adjustable
so that the engine can be offset.
The universal mounts are now available in two styles; one for the Jeep Universals, and one for the wider framed vehicles that will
fit up to 30.500" frames. We also offer a saddle-type mount for Chevy engine conversions that works well for vehicles with frames
from 25" to 30". In the Buick V6 category, we have a weld-in kit that places the V6 engine in Universal Jeeps (up to 1979) identical
to the stock position used by AMC. These mounts use stock V6 rubber mounts and are very heavy-duty. We also offer a universal
Buick V6 engine mount that utilize our double donut design and is fully adjustable, similar to the Chevy and Ford engine mounts.
This mount is Part No. 713011, and does not require the use of the original Buick V6 rubbers.
In conjunction with all engine mounts, you will need to use a rear crossmember mount. This is usually the same mount with a new
location adjusted to the new engine position. Two mounting points are all that is ever required with most installations. This will
allow for plenty of engine flexibility and will eliminate transmission and engine vibrations.
We have been doing engine conversions for over 34 years . We’ve learned the hard
way to count only on top-quality & proven design installations. Our mounts are
secured with a 5/8” diameter bolt between the engine brace and frame bracket.
No rubber vulcanization failure will let you down. To assure that you have
the premier engine mounts that we offer, make sure our name is on the
box. Do not accept look-a-like takeoffs. We are the “4-Wheel Drive
Experts” and have the quality to prove it.
Universal Motor Mounts: The universal mounts we manufacture
are a high quality mounting system. The “L” brackets in these kits are made out of 3/8” material and
designed to handle any style of driving. These universal mounts allow for lateral and vertical placement
in the frame rail to maximize you drivetrain fit. The installation of these mounts will require the removal
of you stock engine mounts.
