Engine Mounting: Description
The engine mounting system consist of a four-point system utilizing two load-carrying mounts and two torque struts. (Fig 1 and Fig 2 ). The load-carrying mounts are located on each frame rail. The right mount is a hydro-elastic mount and left mount is a conventional elastomeric isolator. The two torque controlling struts are attached at the front of the engine, straddling the right side load-carrying mount. The upper torque strut connects to the suspension strut tower and the lower torque strut connects to the suspension crossmember.
