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.
