The motor mount lift does not work to well with the 4bangers due to the amount of vibrations transmitted. You will probably be better off shimming the existing mount to preserve the rubber bushing. As for the body lift, you may be able to get away without it but you will still have to work on the fan shroud and the shifter linkage.

are to bolts that hold the motor mount to frame part of the motor mount or can i jusy get larger bolts to go thru the shim. had and idea to use a hockey puck for the shim guy down the road uses them for his body mounts on his dirt car any ideas?

You can replace the bolts with longer ones and go through a shim.
DO NOT use hockey pucks for anything other than hockey. They have the potential for cracking and causing serious damage. |

You will need a 1" BL with a 1" MML for a 4 banger. If not the engine will hit the firewall. Macgyver's idea about the 1" block with stock MM is good. I have the MORE torsion rubber 1" MML and it vibrates like a mutha on my 2.5L, but it is darn strong.

Some of my body lift spacers are cracked too. And they are not even hockey packs. I wonder if hockey packs would have hold up better.
