@cucvrus Hey Rick! I now have both sets of Energy Suspension Motor Mounts. I will be taking them out of the packages, very carefully so I can send one back.
I can tell you off hand, the 3.1116G type are more rounded around the edges and slightly thinner. I can see that through the clear...
We just installed a new Water Pump and a few other items. In the process we had to remove the Belts for the Power Steering Pump, etc.
After putting things back together, I heard a rattling sound from the Power Steering Pump. The Bolt that tightens the Power Steering Pump onto the Bracket...
@87cr250r look at that, there’s a different version of the Zep Orange Cleaner here in Commifornia. It’s probably not as powerful as the version available in Free States, but still worth a try.

@cucvrus Rick I went ahead and ordered the second type of Mounts. I would like to compare them.
I can just send back which ever one I don’t use. I’ll let you know.

@cucvrus Great Question Rick.
@chevymike that’s also a great point about the transmission mount. I will have to consider that for sure.
Thank you!

My M1009 (6.2 Diesel) needs to have the Motor Mounts replaced.

They are not expensive about $30 each.

@Mainsail wow!! I didn’t realize that at all! Thank you.

Quick Question about my M1009 6.2 Engine: (I’m still learning, so bare with me) I’ve never used a Torque Wrench, but I would like to use one for the bolts for the Oil Pan. I have a small oil leak and am thinking I can properly tighten those up first. I’m hoping that will stop the leak.
