Chaining Motor Mounts

Looking for a tried and true way to do this. Any help would be appreciated.

Was thinking of welding the ends to the frame rails.

In the old days they made a kit that would hold the motor in place if the mounts were to go out. Still have some on the 68 camaro, they are made out of cable.
I would think that chains would make a lot of noise, unless you get them in there tight. Try Summit racing or someone like that. if you are interested in buying some.

There has been a writeup on my page for many years:

http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/CheapTri...torMount.shtml

I use one of the bolts holding my front shock mounts to anchor the chain to. Whatever works for you is fine.

And there is a full featured search on my site:

Thank you Roger. Your site is amazing. I'm learning to check there first before looking anywhere else.
