[Vwdiesel] Motormounts--- (Hagars two canadian cents --or one us penny)

[Shawn Wright]

I swapped mine from the stock rubber ('85 Jetta NA) to the hydraulic mount when I
swapped in the TD engine. It requires a different bracket assembly to make it work,
so if you're going from hydr->rubber you'll need the rubber bracket also. (I have it still
somewhere if anyone needs it)
I noticed my new '85 Jetta NA has the hydr mount, so I don't know when they
switched. The hydraulic do seem to last longer - the one in my TD is still ok after
200k kms. (the right rear is shot though...)
