You could get some cheapo poly body mounts and replace them and see if that helps. Are you sure they're put together correctly? Should be a bushing between motor mount and frame mount, bushing below frame mount, big washer below this, metal sleeve through both bushings, bolt tightened to the sleeve. Works fine for body mounts, don't see why it shouldn't work here, and you wouldn't have to cut it all off and plate your frame and make new ones

The cruiser guys have had problems with the mounts bending. Same thing happens to my slave cylinder mount. I like the spring bushing mount just because it mounts everything pretty solid and doesn't allow for so much play.

maybe weld a plate to the mount with a hole the right size drilled in it as a bandaid, until you have time to cut them off and replace with something like this:
are those the ones on the #001 formula toy? Those things are works of art
the Marlin one: #028
i like the durability of the bushing mounts but they are too stiff and transmit a lot of vibration to the frame. thats why i went to clamshell mounts.
damn which i would have seen those when i did my swap. that looks alot nicer than the advaned adapters ones, but do they make those for 350s? thats a 22re in the picture. but i do like the AA ones though.
what do yours look like john? mine transfers vibration too

Second one from the top. You're welcome
On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
do not buy these, they make the advanced ones look quality. Just about everything downey builds is crap.
