FJ40 on FJ80 with 2UZ

[Vossie]

Thanks! I will see how this matches up with my placement!
How high is the mount flat above the frame? how far do they extend in toward the center of the frame?
Did you offset it to one side of the other? (if so, why?)

To answer:
Will confirm measurements, but this picture shows my engine mounts before engine went in for the last time

Looks like they are not quite level in the pic, but must be the angle because they sit level IRL.

I centered them so the engine is centered in the chassis. The beautiful thing for me was with my adapter plate and my h150 gear box, my gearbox sits in its factory location with the factory cross member. So I let that be my guide when I was making up the mounts

I have one....didn't even think of that! Will go back and update some of them before I sent it off to be reworked.
