Need to replace the motor mounts on my Jet. Does anyone know where to find them ,or have a cross reference to late model ones that will fit ? Not much room under there to jack up the engine to replace them!

    If you cannot find a source for new motor mounts, these companies re-built yours.

    The rear mount is the universal one used in all '32 - 54 models, and available from K-Gap. The front ones can be adapted from generic mounts the same thickness, with studs top and bottom. Just make up a plate to go across the chassis at the bottom and bolt it to the frame, and drill a hole for the bottom stud.

    Could also use the following:

    Front Engine Mount: Anchor #2150 or Belknap #602-1098

    Rear Engine Mount: BorgWarner #31-2215

    It looks like the Belknap (NAPA) number has been changed to 602-1078.

    Thanks everyone! Will try those part numbers at the local Napa , Kragen and Autozone.

    Took off the old motor mounts, and went down to Napa with the numbers provided. The 602-1078 does not match up with the holes on the original one, or the holes on the frame. The Height is the same. Back to the drawing board.

    Bummer. For what it's worth Anchor #2150 is a good number. Don't forget that you can get your old mounts re-built.

    Yeah, got a quote from the person who rebuilds them on the sites provided. Wants $250 each, but will not do just one , has to be a pair at $500 ! He has to be out of his mind! Who does he think I am, a oil speculator ? Might as well throw those sites away, as who can afford them? Napa told me that Anchor #2150 is obsolete, and they only carry the number I mentioned in a previous post, that doesn't fit. Too bad ,as they were only $5 a piece! Anyway, I really appreciate the help.

    Whatever happened to Full line reproductions . I am almost positive he had them in his catalog. I think his name was Dick Bell from Colorado.

    They take your money and 'forget' to send the goods ! Don't think they are in buisness anymore, as they just lost interest.
