Hi. I have a small problem. The front engine mount ( The one with the small shock) on my tp
has expired. I have gotten a new one and when I got home I found the internal Diameter of the bolt hole about 3 sizes bigger then the original. My bolt about 8 mil. The hole in the mount about 16ml. This is all by calibrated eyball. Is this normal or have I an old mount fitted. The only way i can see to fit the appropriate size bolt is to drill the mounting bracket to size on the engine and fit correct size bolt. This seems a lot of work. I went through the mount manual pictures and they all show a large dia hole . ? Is there a sleeve that I need to buy to correct this problem if so where can I get one and what is the name. I cant belive the bolts about to slop around in the new mount?:nuts: Townsville

My TP front mount is the same as yours about 8mm, maybe your replacement is from the wrong model. :confused:
