they have two different mounts...but I have no idea how or where to order them??? Also the pricing is a mystery...

Older 360's had all-rubber-and-no-fluid mounts. Are they replaceable to newer 360?

how do you mean there are two?

only one I can find is this one:



Engine Mount, LH/RH
Engine Mounting
MakeOfCar: VOLVO
Part No:51.6524
Model: 340/360
O/E ref: 3286524

Image

Category: Engine
Application :
Engine: B19, B200
Year: 1983~91





its the right one, I don't think there have been other models (1983 is introduction of the 360 name, technically there was no big change then)

Are you sure about this? As far as i know the early 345's with B19A engine's already had the type of mounts like on that pciture above.

There's a second one in the engine parts PDF. Only one in the 300-series PDF. The other one is "reinforced".

No I'm not sure. This is what I've been told. ???

You're right! I've found out in the parts cataloque that there are in fact two types. They're both filled with fluid but the second one is heavy duty. So this one is probably for the models with power steering i guess. I also found out that the little strip under the engine mount is also an original part. I made it myself, but the idea was bassed on an excisting part.

...for everyone to see and use.

Why would I need reinforced/heavy duty engine mounts for PAS vehicle?

Because the crankcase can hit the PAS rack. It happens with a lot of cars. Stronger engine mounts with less 'travel' can prevent this i think.

I put the 'reinforced' ones on my non-PAS car and they looked identical to the ones that came off........

So I understand that the reinforced ones aren't too stiff for daily driving? Noisier etc?

nah definitely not. My engine sits about an inch higher (which meant I needed to readjust the exhaust brackets etc) and is a LOT quieter than before.

You mean the exhaust brackets in the back of the car right?

But if the engine sits about an inch higher that confirms my thoughts about the PAS. Because a 4 mm strip on the exhaust side, and 6 mm on the intake side of the engine was enough to solve my problem with the crankcase hitting the PAS rack.

no I meant the exhaust bracket that attaches the downpipe to the clutch housing :)
