So I ponied up the big bucks and bought OEM e30 m42 motor mounts because I could not get the e36 m42 motor mounts that RockAuto shipped me to fit to my satisfaction.
Well I will be damned though because these e30 mounts don't fit much better.
See the photos attached but when everything is torqued down and the mounts are seated properly in the subframe the holes in the arms are just too narrow to square up with the top pins on the mounts themselves. Both the passenger and driver side mounts are skewed right over.
Anybody ever seen this ?
I should mention this is an m42 swap into an early m10 car - but I changed the subframe after I blamed the original m10 subframe for not letting the e36 mounts fit.
Anyway - see the photos...
