Upgrade your Honda or Acura J-Series drivetrain with the Innovative Mounts Steel Front Engine Mount (10740), a high-performance replacement designed for compatible Honda Accord V6, Acura TL, Acura RL, Acura MDX, Acura ZDX, Honda Odyssey, and Honda Ridgeline applications equipped with J-Series V6 engines.

Engineered to improve drivetrain stability, reduce excessive engine movement, and provide increased durability compared with aging factory rubber or hydraulic mounts, the Innovative Mounts 10740 is an excellent upgrade for daily-driven vehicles, modified street cars, and dedicated performance builds.

Factory Honda and Acura engine mounts are designed primarily to isolate engine vibration and maintain everyday driving comfort. Over time, these mounts can deteriorate, crack, leak, or separate, allowing excessive engine movement during acceleration, deceleration, and shifting. This movement becomes especially noticeable in higher-horsepower applications where increased engine torque places additional stress on factory mounting components.

Innovative Mounts addresses these limitations with a heavy-duty solid steel mounting assembly, precision billet accessories, and specially engineered polyurethane bushings. The upgraded design helps maintain more consistent engine and transmission positioning under load, reducing unwanted drivetrain movement and improving overall responsiveness.

Unlike factory fluid-filled mounts, the Innovative Mounts 10740 uses a performance-oriented polyurethane bushing system that eliminates the original hydraulic damping arrangement. This provides a firmer connection between the engine and chassis, helping reduce drivetrain deflection during acceleration and aggressive gear changes.

Each mount is CAD/CAM designed and stress analyzed for strength, durability, and dependable fitment. Available in multiple polyurethane bushing hardness options, the Innovative Mounts 10740 allows enthusiasts to select the appropriate balance between vibration isolation and drivetrain rigidity.

Whether you're replacing a worn front engine mount on your Honda Accord V6, upgrading your Acura TL Type-S, or preparing a J-Series engine for increased horsepower, the Innovative Mounts 10740 provides the durability and drivetrain support needed for demanding performance applications.

Installation Notes

1. Verify Vehicle Compatibility: Confirm that the vehicle matches one of the manufacturer-listed applications and uses a compatible J-Series V6 engine mounting configuration.

2. Confirm Mounting Position: Innovative Mounts 10740 replaces the front engine mount. It is not intended for the rear, passenger-side, or transmission mounting positions.

3. Verify OEM Mount Compatibility: Compare the original front engine mount with the manufacturer's specified OEM replacement references before installation.

4. Support the Engine and Transmission: Properly support the drivetrain before removing the factory front engine mount to prevent unexpected movement or damage.

5. Remove the Factory Front Engine Mount: Follow the appropriate Honda or Acura service procedures when removing the original mounting assembly.

6. Inspect Factory Mounting Locations: Check the chassis mounting points, engine brackets, transmission brackets, and surrounding components for damage or excessive wear.

7. Install the Innovative Mounts Assembly: Position the replacement front engine mount according to the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring correct orientation and alignment.

8. Inspect Factory Hardware: Examine original mounting bolts and fasteners before reuse. Replace damaged or excessively worn hardware.

9. Align the Drivetrain: Ensure the engine and transmission are properly positioned before final tightening to prevent unnecessary bushing preload.

10. Torque Mounting Hardware: Tighten all fasteners according to the applicable Honda/Acura and Innovative Mounts specifications.

11. Verify Component Clearance: Check clearance around the engine, transmission, exhaust system, cooling components, and surrounding chassis structure before operating the vehicle.

12. Select the Appropriate Bushing Hardness: Choose the polyurethane durometer that best matches the vehicle's horsepower level, intended use, and acceptable vibration.

13. Expect Increased Engine Vibration: Performance polyurethane mounts generally transmit more engine vibration into the chassis than factory rubber or hydraulic mounts. Higher-durometer bushings typically increase vibration further.

14. Inspect Other Engine Mounts: If the original front mount is worn or damaged, inspect the remaining factory engine and transmission mounts for deterioration.

15. Inspect After Installation: Recheck mounting hardware, drivetrain alignment, and surrounding component clearances after the initial driving period.

16. Professional Installation Recommended: Installation by an experienced Honda/Acura technician is strongly recommended.

17. Confirm Fitment Before Bolting Down: Innovative Mounts states that mounts showing installation bolt impressions cannot be returned or exchanged. Verify all mounting requirements before installation.
