You can remove the rubber or leave it in, I have done it both ways, the results feel the same

 

Rob, cut out the old and fill 'er up...i left the rubber in my rear mount, and it failed again...

 

is there a place i can buy the urethane and do it myself? or should i get my friends dads place to do it for me?

 

if you got a place that can do it for a couple bucks, then sure, if it's cheaper than ordering from acklands grainger, i don't think they stock it, but you can go into your local store and order it in, usually takes a day or 2...look into it, Devcon flexane is pretty pricey up here in Canada. if somebody could do it for less than the DIY method, be it a liquid fill, or a machined bushing, then go for it.

 

When I blew my engine and had the mounts out, I filled both with silicone. It will take a while to cure but so far so good. Definitely not stiff like urethane, but I don't want the vibrations in my cabin. Just another option for fixing a cracked rubber mount for $5. I didn't remove the rubber when I did mine.

 

what about this ? prothane 13-1904, its all 4 mount inserts for an eclipse tho from where ive found them probably under 100 shipped

 

my friends, dads, shop makes all sorts of urethane products so they have all grades available from super soft to machinable hard, so ill ask him only problem i dont really want t remove the rear one cause its so hard to do i think. Also if i go to acklands graniger, what grade would i want or do they only stock one kind?

 

$5 < $100 :P and don't you need to have a business to buy products from Acklands Graniger? I remember I was going to get something from there but then saw that they don't sell to the public, only registered businesses..

As for urethanes, I believe you would be looking for "castable urethanes". Devcon makes 2 kinds, 80, and 94. I'm not sure what grade the 80 is, but the 94 is a Shore A 97 hardness.

flexane 80 would be ideal, i used 3M window weld the first time, left the rubber in, it failed recently, so it lasted roughly a year and a half...though i push the car pretty hard. And i just walk into acklands grainger and buy stuff all the time...

 

what about that protahne 13-904 i posted about? the inserts

 

i googled the part number and got very little return, are they for a 3g eclipse?

it's hard to say if they'll fit properly...

 

sorry i missed a number copying from my first post the part number is prothane 13-1904, its all 4 mount inserts for a 2.4L eclipse 03-06ish year, tho from where ive found them probably under 100 shipped

 

it's a gamble...
