Title: cj v8 engine mounts
Post by: lwbcj6 on April 16, 2013, 06:41:12 PM

Just been looking at the engine mounts available for the amc 360 into a cj and almost without exception they all list fitment being from 1976 upwards.
The only mounts listed for earlier are weld in ones from advance adapters or novek.
My question is are there no oem bolt in mounts available for pre 76 cj,s

It's a V8 in between 2 chassis rails. How hard can it be to make them 'bolt in' ??

I could be shooting this out of my arse (I can't quantify it) but believe only one engine mount is different the other side is the same.

This is what you need, try and find them cheaper though, can be hard to find second hand though
