Title: 30U front motor mount - Help
Post by: Gary 30U on June 24, 2010, 03:16:34 PM
I need a new front motor mount for my 30U. I need one ASAP as we are starting our tour season (yes weather finally quit raining). I have a terrible symphthetic vibration and it appears to be a result of a bad (basically rotted away) front motor mount.

Any help as to who might make them or have them would be helpful. No help from Roberts, Steele or Atlas.

Gary,

If your motor is a New Style U with the water pump I believe have a new motor mount.  I would have to check over the weekend as the 30U motor I have is in Delaware & I am in Virginia.  Is this how the front mount looks.

If you have the same mount as the 29 then I would suggest Then & Now Auto.  see link below.

Chet, Thanks.

I contacted Then and Now and took mine out to send in for revulcanizing.

I have the later 30U with the water pump and fuel pump, but still have the small bisket type motor mount below the front timing chain cover. Looks like that motor has the Floating Power mounts.
