Motormount torque specs

[just plain john]

I've read in a post here that one should tighten the motormount bolts until the sides of the mount contacts the frame mount, and that a specific torque value is not important. I put new HR poly mounts in my hybrid, and I'm curious to know what some of you more experienced guys might do. Any suggestions?

The Motor Mount to the engine is 59ft lb of torque and the Motor Mount to the Frame is 48ft lbs................................on the TR's motormounts I normally torque them to "German Spec's"............goooodntight. :smile:

Cool, thanks for the German lesson.

Actually that's the 'German Virgin' spec: "Gutentight"
