75 hp motor mounts?

Post by duetto »

hi all,

we need to replace at least 2 motor mounts. a couple of questions: 1) 1st are the front and rears the same? the parts manual doesn't directly specify. 2) the parts manual lists 2 options - 1 is described as "200" and the other "flex". any idea which is appropriate? i know the original parts were "150" and "200", so i assume 150 = flex and is more flexible than 200.

I helped replace all 4 on the stbd engine about 3 years ago. My recollection is they were identical. They all had the heavy rubber bushings and they have held up well. Think I got them from Mack-Boring in NJ. I also think they were rather pricey - - about $600 for the set. Made a huge difference in noise & vibration.
