I thought I had an extra, but I don't. I need an MK2 rear engine mount. I think the MK3 had the same one.
THE SOLID piece that bolts to the block and to the car engine mount.
Any condition, could even have cracks or missing part of a bolt hole. I am just using it to build solid steel one for VNT or upside down turbo hook up without taking mine off the car. I will then probably make them if it turns out well....I won't charge 250.00 either. It will depend on what the steel will cost but probably around 40 give or take 10.00 or until I don't want to make them anymore.
Let me know
Now has 2 bolt patterns. If you have VW cast mounts with the numbers 191 199 354 A OR 191 199 354 B. This will work. I have 2 cast mounts now and those are the part numbers. Both are 3 hole mounts, but I don't know what they are for on the car end. If you look at yours and it matches those numbers it should work fine.

I have a mk3 I'd be willing to give to you free, all you'd need to do is pay shipping from Saskatchewan Post code S0K1E0.(Dalmeny,SK, Canada)
Let me know if you want it

mk3 has 1 bolt flat style mount to subframe while mk2 has 3 bolts onto a v style mount subframe.. so if you plan to do both you need both...

After looking there are a couple of mk2 mounts. Early and late. I don't know but it looks like the late mk2 and mk3 maybe the same. For what I am making the only difference would be drilling a hole in the right spot. I don't need the late style so if someone wants to donate one I would find the right spot to drill and make that an option as well.
This is still in the earliest stages. I just found a mount, I will see how long I can borrow it:D

like i said, i have an early td mount if you cant easily source one..
and AFAIK, all the mk2 mounts are the same..
i have a 12/92 mk2 jetta 8v, and a 11/92 mk2 16v jetta.. both had the same engine mount as my 85 and 86 GTIs..
if you need it, you can use it as long as you want. i have enough that we can both use them for jigs..
im going to be doing a VNTD install into my 92 jetta soon, before the summer is over. only piece holding me up is the engine mount.

thats why he needs to have both aluminum ones to make his jig.. 3 bolt for the mk2 people.. and a mk3 for them.. cannot change the "rubber" mount as the subframe is different for the 2..
sadly mk3 tdi ones hard to find... but maybe someone has one you can borrow.. mk2 all same from what ive ever seen.. but IMO your best off to build both styles into the jig..

Tyler (B_Y_M) is adamant that the TD and gasser mounts ARE indeed different..

I don't know about the MK3, i think it's the same. I did a 1.6 TD into a 96 Gasser and all the mounts fit perfectly. The motor mount I bought when I did the VNT this past July, need a hole drilled about 1" way from the current hole at a 45 deg angle. (closer towards the engine, towards pass side). Otherwise the VNT mount fit perfectly. But as I say the MK2 mount on the 1.6 donar car fit the Mk3 without issue.

what about the difference about the mk3 mount having one hole, and the mk2 mount having 3 holes?
THATS DIFFERENT TO ME..

gas vs diesel on mk2... think there is a releif to allow the td oil return to pass thru the thing.. thats the differance.. not the size/area of the mount.. just a releife built in for the oil line... this is no problem for your design stuff.. some guy on the forum has been battling the how th ehell do you get the oil line apart on his td for a head gasket as its entrapped in the mount..
my b3 1.6td wagon i made with a 83 td engine.. i used gasser mount on it..
had to "tweek the pipe... file a little on the mount.. but mine runs down the side vs inside the mount..
ive never seen a mk3 with 3 hole mount.. but canada got odd crap.. so who knows. i think he used his gasser aluminum mount though... just slipped his brain..

Right now I am using an MK2 diesel NA mount on my TD. I think as long as the mount will hold the engine in it should work for what I am doing. A pic of the TD mount maybe nice as if I were selling them that provision could be added.
BTW Rabbit on Roids if you still have that mount my other one fell through.

LOL... for vnt... no oil return line running thru the mount...
so that provision not needed... guy has some eco diesel screen name.. all i know is he was fighting his oil return line to do his headgasket..
ive seen a 250$ mount in person and the provision required for mk2 td is not on it either.. basically the line runs between block and mount.. and well for a almost flat piece of metal would never be acheived.. the 250$ mount is not flat either.. its got a seam in the middle for the different heights of the block mount area is... its was perdy.. not 250 worth.. IMO...
