I was sent 03-07 Honda Accord Mounts (that is what the box says) (PN #10750; matches website) from HeelToe but I do not think this is the problem. I have removed all three stock engine mounts in an attempt to install Innovative ones. Out of the box both the front and rear mounts had the top connector that the bolt goes through to the engine turned 90 degrees. I turned them not thinking it was an issue but now when installing them I need the engine to go back a 1/4 inch to line up with the rear mount, at the same time I need the engine to come forward about an inch to meet up with the front mount. Now I am second guessing I even got the right parts... The side engine mount lines up nicely and I have tried every combination on raising and lowing the engine to make the other two mounts line up (with the side mount both connected and disconnected).
Can someone take a picture of their installed Innovative Mounts? Any suggestions to make them fit aside from raise/lower/pry to the side the engine?

Anyone in North Dallas want to stop by anytime now till Saturday and lend a hand? Got a 12-pack with your name on it lol (or name your price)

Other info: completely stock 05 6MT

just tighting the bolt until they match. They need to be preloaded. I had the same issue (not really an issue) just something they don't tell you about. I have an accord with the 75a mounts.

 

Thanks, I'll give that a try. They didn't really tell me much of anything when I got them so I figured I could follow the OEM replacement guide. But those guides just say look at mount, remove bolts, line up new mount, replace bolts.

 

I'm in the garage and Google isn't helping much. How does one preload engine mounts?

I'm reading that poly bushings don't need to be preloaded as they don't bind to the center metal thing.

 

Just try your best to get both bolt in and start tighting it down. It will shift the center piece.

Ask you can see my mounts are off center. They aren't donut. I checked

 

I didn't like how it pulled the bushing off center so we cut the part the bolt goes through on the old mount and used it as a shim it is about a 1/4 inch thick and we used a longer bolt also that way it didn't pull the bushing off center and we put the stock rear mount back on it vibrated the whole car so bad i thought the dash was going to crack with the inovative rear mount

 

I got them installed. The vibrations are quite intense with the black bushings. Hopefully after a few days it loosens a bit. I like it though.

Ended up attaching mounts to car then getting a bigger pry bar to line up the top bolts. Then slowly pulled the engine to the mounts using the 14mm top bolts (rated a 10 so they are strong). Then I reattached the side mount to the frame which pulled the engine down a bit. Long couple of days but the engine no longer has 2-3inches of travel when letting the clutch out.
