Default Re: Front float-a-motor mounts

In my personal opinion, the front float a motor mounts should not be used. I think that they hold the motor in a fixed position, where as the original style mount allows the motor to "flexability". When you hit a big bump in the road, you want the motor to be able to more or less absorb the bumps and jolts from the road. The float a motor front mounts will hold it in a more fixed positsion not allowing it to move as freely. But this is just my opinion, which sometimes doesnt matter as much as others.

I also am not a big fan of the rear float a motor mounts. They cant support the rear of the motor nearly like the stock mounts can, and it causes the rear of the motor to sag. The last time i pulled my motor i switched back to stock mounts, and it seemed to bring the motor back up into the position it needed to be in. With fresh rubbers in between the motor mounts and the frame, and good springs on the front motor mount you shouldnt have a need to switch to the float-a-motor kits.
