Drug my transmission mount ('51 3-speed) out to do a little clean up on it. The rubber between the two riveted plates is still there, but in pretty sad shape. I also discovered that one of the mount ears had been welded back in place, which might account for why part of the rubber is missing.
Has anyone tried using pourable polyurethane to restore the pad? I looked at some of the material available and have some questions about it.
Anyone know what hardness the pad should be if I attempt it? I'm thinking about 65 Shore. I think it would be easy enough to clean out the old stuff (basically burn it out) and make a form to keep the parts in position till it cures. I know that replacements are available, but ~$75 for a repop or ~120 for revulcanization is a bit steep. Besides, I like to try fixing things myself.
