    My next project is to replace the motor mounts but I'm a little confused? It appears the replacement motor mounts don't include the riveted perch. Mine are riveted together?

    The attachment shows they are bolted together, see perch 6030-6031 and mount 6038. Am I correct in assuming that I have original motor mounts and the replacements will need to be drilled and bolted together? Or, is it that I have a wrong part altogether and they are manufactured with the perch riveted to the motor mount? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!!

    Mine were not riveted. They were bolted but the top of the bolt is rounded like a carriage bolt. Almost looks like a rivet.:)
