Super Jet Broken motor mount fix?

[Freerider77]

I had a stubborn, rusty motor mount bolt that fused to the top threaded plate, causing it to tear from the bumper bushing when I attempted to back out the rusty bolt. Has anybody ever attempted mounting the threaded plate back onto the bumper with some kind of epoxy with success?

Replace it. Honestly, you should probably do all four.

Those threaded tops are vulcanized on you can't fix them.This is why you use anti seize on those bolts. Most guys get longer life from couch mounts like GP800 ones. You can drill the two holes out a little bigger and slide them toward hull sides because they are slightly taller. Also you probably won't need to use any shims for coupler alignment, yeah change them all too.

What he said ^^ Replace them with waveraider mounts, new oem, or rhaas. But to fix you can clean them real well and glue it back in with 5200 and use it until your new mounts come.

Agreed with recommending new mounts. However, there was a member on here that glued a mount back together with 5200 and it held up for an insanely long amount of time.

I believe DAG was that member. I have also glued them and they lasted until I replaced them. I run keepers, so not sure if that helps them last longer or not.

hit up standupparts.com, It's better to replace. I bought a set of Rhass from these guys and haven't had a salt blow out in 3 years.

Since no one has mentioned it, I'd reccomend you replace all four from JM.

Maybe a few wraps of duct tape and a couple twists of bailing wire?

Ratchet straps are what all the cool offroad guys use.

The Rhaas Mounts are SUPER well made, I have not run them in anger yet but the build quality is up there.
