Engine Dampers

(1/2) > >>

rodster:

Any idea if the engine dampers were used on other Ford lines?  I know early 83 TBird Turbo Coupes used them but carried an E2 part number instead of the E3 which I believe was on the 84's as shown in the pictures.

I've always wondered when/why they were used (obviously to dampen shake) but I don't recall seeing them used very long.  Kind of a 'mystery part" to me.

This could be one of those very hard to find concours parts????

All I can offer is from 2/15/1982 SVO redbook;

SubSystem02.03 Engine Mounts - New, similar to 1982 Mustang restricted to 3.5 degree roll. Dual Engine dampers to control shake and reverse wheel hop.

E3ZU 6M046 AA       Add, New 83 T bird W/mod valving  Proto Samples by 4/23/82

rodster:
OK, thanks.

I did an internet search and SUSPA inc. still seems to be in business.  They have a contact section so I sent an inquiry. After all these years, there's probably no one left at the company from the 80's.   ::)

My 94 ranger has some on it. It is longer.

 I'm sure I remember seeing something very similar engine shock on an 83 or 84 V-6 convertible.

 Rod, any chance you could take that pick of the part number with a tape measure next to it for scaling???
