 +The rear mount locates the motor. All other mounts bow to the rear mount. It is the king. ((ryder rick of the XLFORUM))
 +Always always ALWAYS install all the rear mount bolts first before tightening. \\
  
 +Attaching the rear mount to the motor: \\
 +All the bolts must pass through the mount with no binding or pulling. Shim the top 2 bolts if you have to. \\
 +Or file the bolt holes slightly to allow the mount to sit in place naturally. \\
 +Chase the threads with a tap if needed so you get no binding when turning a bolt in a hole by hand. \\
 +Snug the bolts down gradually to allow the mount to shift as needed as bolts are tightened. \\
 +Do not try to adjust the rear mount so the motor will fit in the frame. Adjust the frame instead (it is most likely the problem).
 +
 +And tighten all of the rear mount bolts before installing any of the other mounts in the frame. \\
 +If you have trouble with one of the bolts, remove the others and start that one first. \\
 +Take your time to do it right, take the motor back out if you have to.
