[BaadAssGremlins] Re: 360 Question

["jgray_55" <jgray_55@xxxxxxxxx>]

Have you used the BullTear mounts yet? My Gremlin 6 cyl crossmember 
has ONE hole per side for the factory motor mount stud. The BullTear 
brackets have TWO smaller diameter holes in each them? What holes did 
you line up? I have no engine/trans in my car. Nothing to go by yet. 
As far as i can see...nothing lines up with the Bulltear frame 
brackets where they are supposed to attach to the crossmember?  Also 
for some reason MC will not return email questions of HOW to line 
these up? WTF's up with that? Never had a problem with him before? 
I've emailed him quite a few times(5-7) about whats up with the 
holes....NO reply at all? Have bought alot from him before...May 
NEVER again...since NO reply to questions!! Thanks,Joe
