I finally got around to investigating why the Cad500's fan hits the shroud
when I really "get on it". I'd expected to find a broken rear motor mount.
Instead I found that the front mount's rubber has separated from the metal
housing.

While I recognize that JimK has new (or maybe rebuilt) mounts, and that
there are other sources for rebuilding, I'd sort of like to try doing it
myself. Considering the cost of the pourable urethane, the labor & mess
involved, and the likelihood I'll have to do it more than once, it's
probably not a cost-effective solution.

Has anyone here had experience pouring urethane for such an application?
Results? What density urethane? Is the adhesion to the metal adequate?

Not really wanting to be a pioneer on this. :-)
