ABSTRACT:
A damper mount assembly includes a lower plate that is substantially rigid and has a main body with a first end and a second end. The main body includes a first engagement surface near the first end and includes a support surface between the first and second ends. An upper plate is fixed relative to the lower plate and includes a central opening and a second engagement surface engaging the first engagement surface. A single attachment stud extends through the central opening connecting the mount to a vehicle body tower. A resilient cushion assembly is compressed between the upper plate and the lower plate and engages the support surface. The resilient cushion assembly carries a rigid structural insert that has a mounting opening and the rigid structural insert is movable relative to both the upper plate and the lower plate by deformation of the resilient cushion assembly.
