      Can you ww or pm the mount while it is mounted?

      I see what separates a compression mount from a tension- that does look like the compression type- since it is a solid plunger- the hardener mix would be a direct, simple ( hee-hee- uber low tech! ) way of limiting the movement.

      i think it would be too sloppy doing it in the car. but if you use a tube of ww, it could be done. the poly is liquid, so it would all just run out you have to tape one end and much it a cup and fill it..

      i consider it a compression mount as well, but the want to be sure before attempting and modification. ALTHOUGH filling it will work in both instances.

      Agreed. Thinking out loud- figuring if it's a compression vs tension type would also fix which hardening agent is best for the job as some compounds would be better/stronger in a compressive mode vs some would be best when in a tensile load- if that compound also could be applied with the mount still attached- even better. Now it's research time on that mount type....

      just go start your car and have someone give it gas. i would have known by now but dont have someone that would give it gas without running me over.. which ever way the engine rocks is the type of mount.
