I lost the instructions for the Lord mounts on the 0-320. There are two seperate rubber mounts, one is smooth, while the other is stepped. Which one goes on the engine side? Thanks, Dale ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:23:15 AM PST US From: "Phil Birkelbach" Subject: Re: RV9-List: Dynafocal Mounts --> RV9-List message posted by: "Phil Birkelbach" The one that is stepped is the hard one. It goes in compression. Which means it is away from the engine on top and between the engine and the mount on the bottom. There should be an extra washer for the bottom and if I remember correctly it goes behind the bolt head and the big washer that came with the rubber mounts should go between the engine and the hard mount on bottom. Think of it like this. The big washer should be what applies the compression forces to the hard rubber mount. The bottom mounts use the longer bolts and the top mounts use the shorter bolts.

One of the mounts is stiffer than the other, you put the stiffer one under the weight of the engine. So they go on the top of the top bolts and against the engine on the bottom. Here's a great link with all the instructions as to how to mount an engine! http://new.metronet.com/~dreeves/articles/IllustratedGuideToEngineHanging/enginehanging.htm - Andy ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Dale Larsen" >--> RV9-List message posted by: "Dale Larsen" > >Help! >I lost the instructions for the Lord mounts on the 0-320.
