RabNo1 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Anyone know if there is any difference between the the ep82 auto and manual engine mounts. My rear has fell apart and I'm looking to get a polyurethane insert for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletezy Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 All the same bud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RabNo1 Posted May 22, 2016 Author Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Ah but are they same as the LSD box or the non-lsd? Powerflex show 2 different parts. They say the LSD mount is 74mm and the no LSD is 64mm. I guess I can measure mine, but if anyone knows that'd be a bonus as I can get it ordered tonight rather than tomorrow.

Bug679 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Well if yours has a lsd order the lsd one and if not order the non lsd ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RabNo1 Posted May 22, 2016 Author Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Real helpful. I'm obviously trying to work out what the auto uses. Edited May 22, 2016 by RabNo1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletezy Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Auto box and manual box bushes are the same i highly doubt your box will be lsd being a auto Quote Link to post Share on other sites
richardc9052 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Buy 60a shore 2 part polyurethane rubber and fill your mount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gorganl2000 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Buy 60a shore 2 part polyurethane rubber and fill your mount. seems this is a cheaper alternative when your mounts are in good condition.......even if you buy cheaper new mounts and fill them before you install and i'd suggest you maybe fill the rear mount first with polyurethane (((or install the insert for the rear mount first---if you decide to go that way) before you do any others...as this can kill a lot of the engine movement alone....BUT also you will be able to gauge the increase in any car/cabin vibrations and reduced engine movement before you decide if you want to do the others Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RabNo1 Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 Well it turns out the auto rear mount (well on my 1994 gt at least) is the 74mm mount which Powerflex say is the LSD mount. Don't have a clue if my autobox has a LSD or not.Found a trader on here who's local to me and has poly mounts in stock and cheaper than I can find anywhere online. Think I'll go for that just now and maybe fill the other 2 as there not looking to great either. Don't really want it too stiff and noisey what way do you go to get softer compund? 70a or 50a?Not really related but does the manual starlets use cable gear shift? Its just I've got a donor manual corolla and was wondering if it was worth keeping the box in case I over decided to go manaul or if the autobox dies on me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
richardc9052 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 60a is as soft as you would want to go. Most of the ones you can buy are 80+ other than jezza on here who sells 65a a fairly good price Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mart1 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I had a glanza v auto and the rear gear box mount is the same size as the LSD mount bush, I went and bought yellow Polly mount thinking I needed a new rear mount as a my local garage said I had a bit of play, anyway stuck the Polly bush mount on and it drove horrible it was a right bone shaker. Then I just ordered a manual mount was a little smaller but still would fit, but the problem with that one was more knackered than my auto one was, so in the end i stuck my old auto mount back on as it turned out to be fine, didn't have any cracks in the rubber at all, so I did all this faffing for nothing all because a mechanic said it had a bit of play lol.
