Motor mounts for "97 Park Avenue

The rubber inserts in my motor mounts are very worn and it seems finding new mounts for this model is a bit tricky.

It looks like it has three mounts. I would like to find new inserts if possible.

Re: Motor mounts for "97 Park Avenue

Am I missing something?
I'm not sure why this is tricky. I found them on line in about 10 seconds.

The rubber inserts usually are bonded to the steel components so swapping rubber is virtually impossible.

I found that site the other day and those parts look nothing like whats on the car. One image has a note about parts may not match the image but its not real assuring when trying to locate stuff.

Maintaining a website is expensive. That site carries thousands of different parts. It would take a considerable effort to post and manage thousands of different pics, so its reasonable to say the parts don't always match the pics.

So long as they are a reputable firm and have a guarentee, you should be fine with ordering on-line, especially if you use a credit card.

Thats a good point. I forgot the inserts are usually clad to the mounts. Thanks for pointing that out.

Re: Motor mounts for "97 Park Avenue

IIRC, you have only one "Engine Mount" which is Westar part # EM-5074. Click Here for pdf info. BTW, this is a new item, so no pics are available yet. The others mounts are called "Transmission mounts"; or if you also have a Torque Mount Part Number: EM-2662 Description: Mount, Trq Strut/Mounts. Do the parts shown below look familiar? Notice, one is just an "insert" for the right rear trans mount!

ANCHOR Part # 3126



ANCHOR Part # 3065 (Insert); Rear Left


Manufacturer: WESTAR
Part Number: EM-2662
Description: Mount, Trq Strut/Mounts
Front;MOTOR MOUNT; Years:1997-1999
