Replaced all engine mounts and now upper torque bushing hole does not align with slot on bracket. I was off at least one hole diameter. I went ahead and rocked the engine forward to get bolt thru but should not have to do this. I have even seen someone lengthen the slot on the web. My thoughts are that either the rear mount is not tall enough or the front mount is too tall or combination of the two. The front mount was Hutchinson and the rear mount Corteco, both purchased from FCP. I think much more load is now placed on the upper and lower torque mounts and hardly any load on the rear engine mount. Anyone had same experience?
