Hi,

In the process of having my motor mounts replaced since they were soft. Wondering how I should drill and install new lag bolts. Also should I use 3/8 or 1/2? Should I soak the new holes with epoxy or is 3m 4200 sufficient?

Lag Bolts: I would use the largest size that will fit through the engine mount holes . . . .

I would use some penetrating epoxy to soak into the holes and then re-coat the holes with a little bit more and then fasten those lag bolts.
