Hey Guys,

Just wondered if anyone's fit these in a Gen 1 Paj V6, my current ones were shot to shit, supercheap auto ordered some Kelpro poly mounts and upon trying to install my engine I find that the mounts are a little bit off on each hole and I cant get them to line up quite right.

Has anyone used them and have any suggestions? I really dont wanna pull them out and redrill after just mating everything up in the engine bay.

i found the same problem with my kelpros on gen2 3ltr. unfortunately mate i had to pull them and round out the holes to fit. not very happy after i just put the motor in with new mounts! from memory i did not take th emotor rights out, but did have to manipulate with engine crane and jacks to extract them

Ahhh jesus christ.

Thanks mate, didn't wanna hear that but it looks like it might be the only option. Got the engine sitting on them at the moment, kinda hoping they will compress over the next week but I find it highly unlikely.

I'm pretty disappointed really, I dropped the motor in with the gearbox and all in place as most would know is an absolute ShortyIQ nightmare on this model, now I gotta do this
