dravid Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Hi all I came across an engine mount torque spring for a 1931 Plymouth PA. it looks like half of a front leaf spring pack. This part confuses me because I just got my 4 Cylinder PA started up but do not recall seeing this part on my car. Am i missing this part on my car? It is quite a large part and I would see it if it was there or I should notice something missing if it is not there. Can anybody post some pics or advise me if this part is supposed to be on my car. Thanks Dravid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F&J Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Keiser31 might have a pic and application.My 32 PB had it. It was bolted solid to the bottom of the bell housing and went over to the passenger side framerail area. This was a piece of the "Floating Power" engine mount system. If your PA has a somewhat triangular front motor mount that is centered quite high, then I think it would need the spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Braverman Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 You need it. It goes under the bellhousing. I can take photos if you need, or it's probably in the manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patricks31ply Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 On the passenger side, under the frame should be a square torque mount. (picture included) that has vulcanized rubber inside. This is what the leaf sits in. My 31 PA has one but the rubber is bad. I will climb under and get you some pictures this afternoon. If you are missing the mount it looks fairly simple to fabricate with the only hassle being the rubber portion. Then and Now Automotive will re-vulcanize the rubber, roughly $32 according to the website. You have to send yours in to have the work done.
