Polyurethane replacement top engine torque mount bushing insert for 2005-07 Ford Five Hundred/Freestyle and Mercury Montego.

FINALLY! An upgraded Top Engine Torque Strut Mount insert for these cars!!

If you've had one of these cars for much time at all, you know the top engine torque mounts don't last very long AT ALL. They are way too soft and weak and they quickly start to crack until they fall completely apart because they are over stressed and flexed. Once they start to fail, the engine can be felt slamming back and forth whenever the transmission changes gears or when you press/release the throttle.

Now there is an upgraded Polyurethane Rubber option that will hold the engine in place much better, and have a much longer service life. These are not as hard as a normal "race" polyurethane mount that you may be familiar with. These are made of 70A Shore Hardness polyurethane which is softer than the 80-95A that most polyurethane mounts are made of. The 70A is a happy medium that is more firm than the original mount, but is not so hard that it transfers a lot of engine vibrations into the cabin of the car. Although there may be a slight increase in vibration at certain RPMs, it will be nothing compared to the engine slamming with a worn original style mount.

**Update. After making and selling hundreds of these bushings over a few years, I have not had a single complaint of excessive vibrations from this bushing. Or a single failed bushing.

Here is a a video link showing more details about the bushing, as well as how to replace it.

Lubricating grease is supplied with all bushing orders. All contact surfaces of the new bushings and steel sleeves should be thoroughly lubricated before installation for easier installation, smooth/quiet operation and long bushing life.

Due to the several custom options, nearly all items are made to order. Therefore, there could be up to a 10 business day production time on some orders before they ship. But I almost always keep these in stock and ready to ship!

Please message me if you have any questions about this item fitting your specific vehicle or for any other questions.

Color Disclaimer. The formulation of polyurethane that I use to make bushings is chosen because of its high physical strength properties. An unfortunate downside of this type of polyurethane is that it can darken or discolor over time. Especially if it is exposed to UV light. This discoloration has no affect on physical properties but it only aesthetic. I highly recomend not leaving the bushings exposed to sunlight before they are installed. Obviously once installed, sunlight exposure isn't much of an issue but darkening may still occur.
