When you removed your original mounts, they were a snug fit. You go to install new aftermarket mounts and there is about 1/8" gap between the mounts and the motor side of the brackets.
What would you do?
- tighten the bolt to squeeze the brackets into the mount? - the motor side looks to be aluminum, could they break?
- leave the gap? - doesn't seem like a good idea,
- shim the gap with a washer? - sub-optimal but could work.
- send the mounts back and try a different brand? - it could take a while to get a set that fits perfect.
