Rb Adapter Plate
That setup would effectively give you 2 sets of dampeners and I doubt thats what you want. Also, given the weight of the motor, and the length of that (effectively a torque arm) plate you are going to more than likely shear something. Either make an adapter that goes from those mounts (that are shot now, by the way) to the 4 bolt engine mount on the RB or make an adapter from the single bolt RB isolator to the crossmember.
I ended up ditching the crossmember all together and bolted my engine mounts to the frame rails.

edit: Perhaps I overlooked one thing, is the RB isolator single bolt on both sides? In that case you could bolt to the engine mount - but you are still applying a lot of twisting torque.
yeahh that twisty thing iam aware^^
iam thinking about some support behind the plate like a puk or something that rest on the crossmember itself
i basicly make a more simpel version of some swap kits which i saw across the web
^^pricetags around 300$ makes me laugh for some simple plates
180$
yeahh you see the plates in the middle?

I know the zero lift kit is not really stronger,and the mckinney kit is a fucking joke
any suggestions?
Looks not too bad. Similar to the design I have... I'll have to reference the details where my thread is.
s13 tension rods....
make a bracket for the rod to attach to the motor, then cut the rod shorter, and weld it wherever you desire. then beef it up.
lol
