Hello,
I am putting everything back together after the timing belft change and the new motor mounts.
I find something strange as I am putting the passenger one on, see pics, there is play (a lot) between the bolt that goes trhough the mount and the tube inside the mount.
Compared the old one and the new one, same diameter.
Is that normal or am I missing a part ?
Thanks !

Looks normal to me...

if you still have your motor mounts out, might want to go ahead and poly fill them.

ok thanks so I just put it like that and torqued at 40.

I will keep the old motor mounts and do the poly when these new ones go :-)

consider getting Ingalls stiffy etd and setting it on a stiff setting. it works wonders, well worth the money. it should keep things from getting destroyed so fast

Don't remember that much play between parts.
Methinks there is a parts issue. Either wrong mount or wrong bracket.

I checked my DIY, but the pics were inconclusive.

they new mount should be just like the old one and fit the old bracket. I'm confused? Did the old and new match up?

Yes this is normal, I just changed mines yesterday and it was the same.

I don't remember that much slop in that bolt. It certainly doesn't look right to me as the entire torque of the engine would be rocking this around.

Have you compared all the old parts with the new ones ? I know, dumb question but I had to ask......

I'm wondering if you have the right bolt.

nicotls

Agreed smartypants, that's why I seemed strange to me.
Old and new part are exactly the same but I was thinking maybe I am missing a part that would go between the mount and the mount to make it a tight fit

This is the part # and spec for the bolt

95701-12110-08 BOLT, FLANGE (12X110)

12mm is the shaft thickness and the 110mm is the length, so if a 12mm socket fits, its the wrong bolt. The head should be a 14mm, I think, certainly bigger than 12mm.

nicotls

On mine, the bolt head is socket size 17.

Didn't feel like removing it tonight, but checked diameter inside the old mount : 19.

I have mine installed now, but i left it stock, how much of a difference if tightened will there be?

I can tighten it while installed on the car right?
