Ok now I have the blown flex pipe problem in my 94 classic with 130K. I
have the oriniginal stock motor mounts everywhere except for the front dog
bone. The header is about 2.5 years old I think... Any I have the full
energy suspension kit installed. Do I need to replace a motor mount before
I fix the flex pipe. I can get what sounds like wheel hop on damp roads
when I am driving the car hard. What does a collapsed passenger side mount
look like?
I spoke with Hot shot and they are being cool about the hole thing but I am
still looking at 50-75 to fix it and then 18 to ship each way so 111 worst
case and I definitely do not want to do this again if I can avoid it (15
working day estimate of no car....). I think I put at least 40,000 miles
on that piece do they just have a short life?
I know others have wrestled with this problem recently. Any advise
greatly appreciated. The girl at hotshot recommended that I tried to rock
my motor with the car in gear to check the mounts. I checked it and nothing
moves. Is this check sufficient?
Thanks,
Will
