Title: What type of compressor mounts do i need?
Post by: addamb on July 11, 2014, 08:31:52 am
So I stole a pic from the forum again since i didn't have a clear pic. But this is the same compressor my V90 has and it mounts to the deck on the bottom in the area circled in red. However i can't tell what type, if any, rubber isolation mounts it has. From what i can see from behind the machien it looks like it's hard mounted directly to the deck plate. However if i move it a bit it flexes.

I realize once i pull the deck it'll be obvious, but I'm trying to buy as much stuff as i can ahead of time in preparation for tearing it down next month since the family will be out of town for a couple weeks and i want to take advantage of that time and be ready to roll.


Thanks!!

It bolts directly to the plate, there are no rubber mounts used on that style compressor.

Thanks! That's what i was hoping you'd say! I have some rubber sheeting i was going to use throughout to try to "quiet" things down a bit. Not that it's all that loud when running, but it could be a tad quiter so i was going to try to "isolate" some of the harmonics a bit.
