M63118 Motor Mounts

Post by Ajc »

Dose anyone have a NOS M63118 motor mount they could measure and take a picture of? I'm working on making a mold so I could pour liquid polyurethane mounts. Liquid polyurethane for diy engine mounts is fairly cheap, like 25$ to 30$ and will be able to pour at least 4 mounts. You can also pick the durometer. I'm thinking 60A.

I do know about using bobcat mounts. I have them on my 800 and they just seem too soft. They probably work well on lower hp sleds, but on the 800 the motor mounts flex on takeoff. If I had a durometer gauge I would check the bobcat bushings. If they don't work I will go back to the bobcat ones.

Andrew,

I would be interested in buying some mounts from you if you are making them. I need 2 sets for my Cyclones, I believe they are the same mount as your 800.

Hey Allan,

This is Andy, I picked up that Liquifire from you so my buddy could take it to Joe in Horicon Wis.

I would like to get some NOS motor mounts from you for my Cyclones if you still have some. PM me

Thanks
