ABSTRACT:
A front engine mount for mounting an engine to a vehicle frame. The engine mount includes a connecting link pivotably secured at one end thereof to the front of the engine and pivotably secured at the opposite end thereof to the vehicle frame. The connecting link can be installed so as to be in either tension or compression. In compression, the end of the link connected to the engine is above the opposite end connected to the vehicle frame; in tension, the end of the link connected to the engine is below the opposite end connected to the vehicle frame. An alternate mounting arrangement utilizes a plurality of rollers disposed between an engine bracket and the crossmember for supporting the engine. The rollers provide the engine with lateral freedom permitting the engine to rotate, or vibrate, about the least energy axis.
