Model A 4 Cylinder Engine and Middle Transmission Mount Kit for Model A Chassis - Ford 1928-1931
$ 499.99
Part Number: OYS-MAMMK
Description:
The stock Ford Model A engine mounts were lackluster back when Henry made them, with a only single center spring mounting point to the front of the chassis and a rigid middle mount at the sides of the transmission that transferred all the vibration of the drivetrain directly to the chassis itself.
Old Yankee has addressed this problem by designing a two part front mounting system that will use the stock front engine mount bolt location, a saddle type bracket, and added two new mounting locations with rubber vibration dampening biscuits to the sides of the chassis using the stock Model A friction shock mounting location.
Then the middle transmission mount is a two part hanging mounting system that utilizes the stock bolt locations, rubber vibration dampening biscuits, vibration dampening frame pads and larger diameter frame hardware. The mounts are made from 3/16" and 1/4" mild steel, precision bent and tig welded. Increasing both strength and durability all while reducing vibration.
These mounts are available as a kit as you see here or individually on their own. They can be purchased with or without the stock Model A friction shock plates or the optional 32-39 V8 transmission mount upgrade.
This kit is a bolt on solution, using stock location frame and engine mounting holes.
PLEASE NOTE: While the front mount will work with Model B engines, the middle mounts will not.
If using the stock Model A friction shocks with your application, or the Model A chassis is thin, we recommend choosing the option with the OYS shock support plates (PN# OYS-SMP8) for added strength. These shock plates are available for addition cost in the product selection drop downs.
Please allow for 3-5 days on welding these together, 1-2 weeks if you get the transmission mount.
Included in the engine mount kit:
- Model A or 1932 B front engine mounts
- Front side mounts for frame
- Middle engine mounts for engine/transmission
- Middle engine mounts for inside of frame
- Chassis plates for outside of frame
- V8 Style Rubber vibration dampening engine mounts
- Rubber dampening pads for for outside frame plates
- All required hardware is included
Optional Add Ons:
- Shock mount outer support plates (+$40)
- Transmission mount, additional V8 Style Rubber Biscuit Engine mounts, and Boxing plates (+$500)
Requirements for using this kit with Old Yankee AV8 32-39 transmission mount:
- Narrow 1942-1948 3 Speed stock transmission mount (we often have these available for an additional cost, please call to find out)
- Model A or Model B intermediate housing as an adapter, or a Ford 3 Speed V8 transmission. Both options will require the use of a narrow transmission mount mentioned above.
