the mounts are like 80-100, the block brackets that grab 7 holes instead of 3 are like 280/pr.....you can get the package for about $300. both mounts and both block brackets(those are the awesome pieces!)

Pass side???? I sheared all my pass side motor mounts off a month ago....went down a muddy backroad (kinda heavy on the throttle, ill give ya that) then hit a bump on the main road a few min after, and BAM! drove it 3 miles to work with the distributor resting on the twisted mount being the only thing holding the right side of my 4.0 up!
BTW it cost me 4 hrs labor to have it repaired.....$340

Exactly what happened to me!!! Messed me up sitting on the distributor, drilled out the bolts and replaced the bolts as well as a new mount. My dude was really nice only cost me $330 parts and labor.

i found out the PO had tried to fix this once before, drilling a hole crookedly AND INTO THE CRANKCASE! this was my big oil leak, lol....he repaired that at the same time, so as a bonus i now have a non-leaking XJ! glad neither of us got ripped off!

When you think your lifter tick got louder, but after looking under the hood realize its just crap under the distributor cap again.
Yeah we did it again the other way around in front of King Soopers this morning. Funny because both Jeeps have different tires in this pic than the last one (14 hours earlier)
