found one mount to be steel and the other aluminum...
is this norm... |
for the 93's yea... so if you want to upgrade you have to buy the other two piece mount.... ask dragon, he had a few available... well, if you buy his mounts anyway! i did, i can't wait to install em.....
|
mine were both alum when i needed to replace one. i was dissapointed to find that steel was all i could get. i would think that one has been replaced before.

i believe the new ones are cast iron or steel..
as the aluminum ones were the ones prone to cracking.. can someone confirm this.. |

The aluminum ones appear to be GLUED together in tension. About as dumb as it gets.
Mine was being held together with that dinky little metal band. |
The aluminum one jsut has the rubber portion vulcanized onto the metal. They always break. Its a horrible design as the motor torques towards the passenger side and that mount was on the driver's side. Thus the pulling force on it breaks it. In 94+ mazda started using the cast iron ones on both sides. Those actually have a bolt that pass through it.
