I am replacing old Crusader 270's with new Crusader 270's. I have removed the port engine and now have had a close look at the engine mounts and brackets. I will be reusing the brackets but want to replace the mounts. The old engines have single eye front mounts on the forward part of the engine. The rear is supported only by mounts on the transmission. These too are single eye mounts.
When I look at parts online I notice that the single eye mounts are consistently labeled as "front" mounts and those labeled as "rear" mounts have dual eyes. Should I be converting to dual eye mounts in the rear or just stick with the way it was and put single eye mounts all the way around? There is about a $230 price difference but I want to do it right.
