rubber engine mounts

I've just spotted these on ebay.

linky

Can anybody see a reason why I can't use these instead of the round ford mounts? These are much cheaper, and I imagine firmer?

I'd order them right away. Cheap and looking OK.
The stiffness is determined by the grade of the rubber (shore).

Agreed part number STC434. not seen them as cheap as that. Usually about £3 +Vat an postage.

Might be an imperial thread. Still... thats not a major problem.

I've got some of them - M10 thread





Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!
