99 V70 Motor mount V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Oleseahorse on  Sun Jun 27 10:28 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hello, The top motor mount adjacent to the brake fluid reservoir includes a round aluminum casting that is bored to fit about a 2" round rubber bushing parts of which have torn. The majority of the larger section in the central area, however, is still intact. There may even be a race to this rubber bushing, but it is hard to tell, which would indicate the bushing was pressed in.

I contacted FC Groton and was told that this was common, and they sold me a two piece "torque rod bushing" which included two large rubber bushings, a bolt and hardware and a steel bushing.

Before I tear the old assembly apart, I'm wondering if I can get some input from the good people here on the Brickboard. If I do ream out the old bushing (and race?), would this new bushing assembly fit. is this the way to go?
