fabricated diff mount

I need to fabricate a diff mount, for a 88 RX. It has to allow slight movement like the OEM mount.

I need some pictures, as I have destroyed mine twice and destroyed the entire area where the mount connects to the car.

I just need some good ideas that can handle hard take offs.

Thanks.

It is very common for the metal piece where the stock mount bolts up to break free. You need to weld it back to the rear subframe and reinforce it. Then as suggested get the Mazda Motorsports HD diff mount from the Irvine, CA headquarters.

I broke 2 stock diff mounts before going to the HD unit and no problems since.
