I'm the Dork who ran 14.9 on PassTime. :)
I dunno, I would get a pole120 filled one for that. I did this to mine cause it was in good condition anyways I juust wanted to make its stockness (lol) better.

As you can see, the pre-98 rear roll resisters are different in design than the post 98's. It is for this reason that i can't accept them as cores, because they can't be rebuilt. Your best bet is to source a newer style mount then either enjoy it in stock form, fill it, or have it filled.

I would say try filling it with the window weld. Just make sure that you have the insert centered as best as you can.
It'll be a lot better than it is now!

So are the mounting holes for the post-98 the same as the pre-98 ones? Like could I go to a junk yard, get one off of say a '99, and then put it on my '95 with no problems?

Absolutely. Their design differences are only in their construction.

Cool... Now I just need to figure out how to get under a car at a junk yard come spring, LOL...

Which one do you need, cause after I install this filled one I did I will have 1 of each, front and back you can fill, or have Pole120 fill for you.

I have not looked at the front one, but I would not be able to use them until spring, and I can not really afford them until then either...

Crap... I forgot to post that I have a Zetec... I assume that the roll restrictors for the Zetec / Duratec are different, no?

Different from post98's or different from pre98 Duratecs?

i know they are different from all duratecs but im not sure about post98 zetecs.
the pre98 zetec's front RR has 2 holes for the bolts to mount it to the subframe instead of the integrated studs like the duratec.

I see... Well I have not even looked at my front one yet, LOL... Hopefully it is good

Here's the skinny. Understand I'm talking only MTX vehicles here.
Fronts: Doth Duratec and Zetec are the same, difference comes in years.
For example pre98 duratec = pre98 zetec, and post98 duratec = post98 zetec
Pre98, has holes for thru bolts
Post98, has two integrated studs.
Pre and post 98 are not interchangeable due to a change in the bolt spacing for mounting to the sub frame but all mount to the trans the same.
With a drill and some time you can make them interchangeable.
Rears: ALL REAR MOUNTS ARE IDENTICAL FOR MOUNTING
Pre98, insert is solid rubber and molded into the casting, cannot be removed.
Post98, insert is not integrated into the mount, but is a separate part installed into the casting, can be removed.
