Re: [DML] broken motor mount bracket

[jus4sho@xxxx]

Andy, I had a similar problem that my engine mount studs seized into the 
aluminum crankcase flange. When I tried to loosen the nuts, they sheared 
right off. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that one of the bolts had 
corroded so badly, that it had swelled and cracked the aluminum the length of 
the mount! I debated whether or not to try to drive it out and weld up the 
crack, but decided the only way to repair it correctly was to replace the 
entire crankcase. Fortunately I found someone on this list that had a used 
one available for sale.

I know this doesn't offer an easy solution to your problem, but I just wanted 
to you to know you're not the first one to experience this.
