4age 16v engine mount ae86

Postby gianfrancotrd » Mon Dec 01, 2014 8:06 pm

hi all I have a question I hope you can help me.
has something wrong with mounting the 4age in maybe 3 ° horizontally, is that the original engine mounts has a greater inclination, but I'm making a new fixed mounts, and now has 3° of inclination. there are something wrong with this?

Please i need a good explaining of this if you are engineer that's better jaja. i mean i need a true answer

regards from peru.

Running your drive line angle at 3* will not cause any real issues. Ideally you want the u-joints running at parallel angles, but in the real world carrying four or five passager in the car would change the drive angle more than that. I'm running just a 1* drive angle, and have adjust the pinion angle upward an additional 1* out of phase, and have not had and issues in over 30,000 miles. Dave W

hi dave if you've traveled 30,000 miles no problems with the engine 1° inclination for it is more than certain that there is no big difference, anyway I just checked a 16v cylinder head, and see that the drain is in the back. and i decided for inclination horizontally 5°

thanks for your advices
