    Finally found the correct engine mounts for the engine to the truck took almost two months searching. Was on someone's scrap pile none the less.

    Cousin couldn't help. Local wrecker coming in today soon.

    Sorry it's trucking I been busy as heck haven't had any time to do anything. Rush before winter

    FML. Did I really put the engine mounts in upside down or what did I do wrong??? Why isn't it sitting straight? Seems way too angled.... I need help. First picture isn't mine it's how it's supposed to look

    Sorry rotated the picture. The front supports are the same from the k100 to the w900b I think? Maybe the k100 has a lower drop? Snapchat-1159295637~2.jpg

    Are you certain that you have the correct mounts?

    Take a photo of them on the truck and send the picture over.

    The real answer to this is that you need to find a truck that is that exact year and model with that engine and go look at it. That's the best way to answer whether you have it correct or not.

    Just looking at your pictures, left side fuel pump to frame height and such, I thank the back is low. Is there room for it to go up? What would it take to mount it there?
    None of these left around here to look at.

    If you can't find any other trucks like that, find another truck that has a big cam in it and put a level over the valve covers.

    Make sure the truck is on level ground and then pick the level up until it's level on the back end and measure how far down it goes. Measure each one from the same reference point.

    I don't know what the inch part of that is but I thought it was about 2° or maybe three degrees? If you have a level that will give you degrees that would be better.

    If I switch the mounts upside down from what it is now would possibly level it out from my thought. Been raining all day so haven't had time to jack it level
