    Ouch. Yeah I'd wait til he responds back to you. Motor/ Trans mounts aren't fun. I'm right in the middle of fabricating mine and they suck on a 1st gen too.

    seems to be the norm with getting ahold of dtf. I hit him up on ig about ordering some of his motor mounts. Instant reply back saying they had some in stock, so I said let's do it. Didn't hear back for about 3-4 weeks so I ordered some from bonzen. When he finally replies back I told him I already paid for bonzens, he replied "hope they fit". Get your shit together @DTFtacoma, theres plenty of fab shops with shitty costumer service as is, hire a hot little secretary or learn to pickup a phone. Bonzens mounts fit perfect btw

    28.75" with no inner tie rods. Or do you need the measurement at the center of the pivot of the inner TREs?

    I spoke with Bill yesterday and I'm sending him a new mount along with a credit.

    Sorry you had to deal with this man. I pride myself in the quality of my parts and fitment.


    Got that text this morning :thumbsup:


    I'm sorry but you must understand what kind of workload I face on a daily basis. I've got people contacting me on every form of social media and the occasional phone call while I'm working 12hr days. Every quote I give out only about 10% actually get the work done which just gives me even more stuff to do when I get home. One day I'll have secretary but not anytime soon. Only reason I said that is because the mounts we received wouldn't even line up with the holes on the engine block. We had to drill the holes out to 5/8" and they still didn't line up with the frame side either, granted Jordan's truck was pretty beat on.

    why do people try to order parts via social media ? what's the world coming to. Other then face to face the good old fashion phone call is still best means of communication but hardly anyone uses it. Amazon is the devil, we all think we should be able to click and boom its at the door steep. I see people constantly bashing vendors on forums about how he didn't respond to my IG,or IM, but never dialed a number and actually called them. Dam I barely know what IG is, and I really don't care to know. But I guess I better start.:crapstorm:
