"Created", please. There was no inventing involved. Side note: Did you know that the "blue screen of death" is blue, because researchers found that blue has a calming effect? Arno

The washers should fit fine, but to prevent the screws from vibrating loose, use either those screws with smooth shanks that are a lot larger in diameter than the threaded portion, or apply weak Loctite to the threads of regular screws From Wikipedia: "The feel and damping qualities of Sorbothane have been likened to those of meat." Has anybody tried replacing worn engine mounts with sirloin?

In order to reduce shock the drive must be able to move in all planes. Grommets need much bigger holes, studs require some extra height. > but to prevent the screws from vibrating loose, use either those screws > with smooth shanks that are a lot larger in diameter than the threaded > portion, or apply weak Loctite to the threads of regular screws > > From Wikipedia: > > "The feel and damping qualities of Sorbothane have been likened to > those of meat." > > Has anybody tried replacing worn engine mounts with sirloin? |
