Theo,
You have Mexican motor mounts. {9->
The original mounts are indeed "handed".
Haven't found the "second" box yet, but one is marked "C3-AA-6B032-H-LH", with a
"AU 12" above that.
In addition, the steel next to the bolt is stamped "L". I presume this is the
Left
one.
As you probably know, the fore-aft bolt location, between the two motor bolt
hole
locations, is 3" from one hole and 4" from the other (approx.). In addition,
the
bolt is I inch from one lateral side, vs about 1 1/2 inches from the other.
Bottom line. The are different. They are NOT Mustang!! (BTDT [8-<). It is
important.
Good luck, I am sure you can find the correct replacements, Mine are from
"Trust"
and is part 2220. If I ever find the other box, I can give you the rest of the
part numbers.
