Warning about motor mounts 200

posted by  someone claiming to be kraynek on  Mon Mar 1 12:42 CST 2004 [RELATED]

skateboard wheel, eh? good idea

that being said, would it be a good idea to rig up a "safety catch" thing adjacent to the oil filter and motor mount (possibly in the form of an old mount or new cheapie one. Or, something stiff might help so the car shaking like hell will indicate something wrong.) This could be done such that a sheared old mount will dump the engine on this temporary support, rather than tearing a hole in the oil filter.

I'd suggest more, but i can't picture that space in my head right now, and I don't feel like going outside. any ideas?
