If the old mounts aren't broken, you don't need new ones.

Replacement mounts can be purchased through Honda, autoparts stores, or www.explicitspeedperformance.net.

When we bought mounts for my 91 accord (f22a4) they were pretty pricey: front and side ones around 70-80 and the rear one (with the solenoid) was around 120. If the ones you have aren't cracked, just leave them in. It'll save ya all that money.


Hope this helps!

esp mounts are great they just take a while to make and ship. If your old mounts can hold up esp is the place to go but if they are worn maybe you should get new stock ones. Worn mounts will do alot more damge

fill your stock mounts is your cheapest bet from a performance point of view, although not really sure what to do with the rear ex mount...

[deevergote]

yeah, the rear EX mount can't be filled like the others. Converting to the regular mount is the only way to do it.


Filling is a quick and easy (and cheap) thing to do to hold you over while waiting for ESP mounts. Seriously though, ESP's mounts are far superior to filled mounts.

anyone use Innovative Mounts? I have filled sides and a front solid but thinking about getting a Innovative rear since they made a direct replacement for the big EX mount vs having to switch mount brackets.

I would prefer DIY mcmaster-carr mounts over anything else. This is almost overboard, but it's not: you can literally gut the OEM mounts of almost all their rubber, leaving acouple of small sections in the center to hold the center sleeve while pouring them. This is what I did, my dogbone and rear DX/LX 5 spd mount took 1 lb of 94A urethane, normally 1 lb will do 4 mounts, 1 lb. did 2. The side mounts took another 1 lb, so 2 lbs of 94A total. DIY

How do you know if your mounts are broken or worn out? When I put my car in reverse, it shakes a bit, but not violently. Otherwise it's fine in other gears.
Thanks.

you can visibly look at them to see if they are worn, loose or torn apart.

ok. Just checked all 4 mounts. I can see the front and the driver's side are cracked but not torn apart. I cannot really see the ones in the back and the passenger's side. They seem ok. I think the back one I need to go under to check. Since the 2 are cracked but only shakes when in reverse, should I even change them out yet or wait until the shake is unbearable?

Thanks.
