5.7 motor mounts

I would be interested in a set of both but it doesn’t feel like timing is going to work out? I have an appointment at TCCN automotive on June 3rd for a full inspection and most likely a new motor and transmission.
I’m not sure what the timeframe will be after June 3. This will be a 2nd vehicle and project truck.
I have a pretty nice 2010 chassis with 377,000K road miles on a 5.7. I don’t do a lot of off roading but I’m always interested in good up-grades.

 

Appreciate the interest, I am 4 weeks out on lead time right now, and thats before the GB orders. So if you placed an order today, you would be looking at July for delivery.

 

This might be an obvious or N00b question, but what are the tq specs for the motor mount lock nuts (red circle)? I'm a tq spec kind of guy. Same thing applies to the trans verticle lock nuts.

If it's 2.1-million-foot pounds with globs of red Loctite, then I'll send it.

 

It's not a torque spec. You want to get it close/touching and maybe a turn or 2. If they are squeaking back off a little. Over tightening can cause premature failure. I rechecked them twice about 100miles to ensure they were good.
On the trans mount that used nylocks I did torque those as there is no poly-bushing.
@Bonzen or others can chime in on their method.

 

I don't have a torque spec, there isn't anything to reference for these parts because none of these parts with the Poly bushing is OE manufacturer engineered to ASTM/SAE standards. That 9/16" bolt with the nylock nut shouldnt ever come loose, crank it down tight - but not so tight that the bushings start squeezing out. At some point the inner bushing sleeve will bottom out on the tabs and it wont tighten anymore anyway(noted in the instructions). These things don't pivot or move, the bushing is just there for vibration dampening.

So in summary, send it.

 

Good to know. I had my traction bar bushing tear from over tightening. Didn't want that to happen here. Thanks!
