Is this an ATX front motor mount? (pic in post)

According to Pep Boys this is a motor mount for a 95 ATX SHO. I've actually never seen an ATX mount aside from the obscured view I get inside the engine bay, and that mount looks bigger. Can anyone verify this for me?

Nope.

Nope. It's def not round like that it more square looking. I think you bought the bottom part of a toilet plunger....

 

[sdpatt]

Well MattyMac1, yes, the ATX motor mounts are round and fluid filled. They just don't look like that one. AutoZone has missed the target on both the front and rear MTX motor mounts too.

Autozone sometimes gets your sho and non-sho applications mixed up. They did that to me on a VSS.

Sorry & Very interesting. Funny how different the ATX to MTX are..Autozone ordered me the torque de-limiters instead of a motor mount before.I have the reinforced SHOSHOP ones.

They did the same for my upper radiator hose. They guy hands it to me and I say.. you sure that was for the SHO right?.. yes... let me take it outside and do an eyeball check...(go back in).. you wanna check those part numbers again?....oh.. I see it now.

It sure helps to know what your getting, before they hand you something that wasn't made for your SHO.

Thanks for the input everyone! I was suspicious right away when Pep Boys immediately said "yup, we have one in stock, it's $40.61." bs We all know SHO parts cost three times that much! So today I call the local dealership, there's one in Ohio that can be here on Monday, cost $119.00. Ok that sounds right, about 3 times what a regular mount costs

I made several different calls today, shopping around for a mount and once again I was faced with the uninformed parts counter "gurus". Apparently there isn't even a listing at most places for a 3.2 SHO engine, as I had several people (including one Ford parts person) ask me "are you sure that's a 3.2??

For that price you better make sure its reinforced, i suggest getting one at shonutperformance.com

This is for an ATX. No reinforced mounts available & actually $119.00 is a damn good price for an OEM mount.
