    2010 Mercury 250 XS upper motor mounts

    2010 Mercury 250 XS
    SN# 1B791202
    MOD. 192847GHD
    250 DFI L XS

    I need a parts list to replace the upper motor mounts.

    I have already decided to use Bob's Machine solid mounts. I have installed them on a 2001 Mercury 225 EFI.

    Thanks!!!

    Don,

    I know, but they are broken.

    I'm going with solids.

    I was looking for recommended parts list to do the job.

    I know I will need powerhead base gasket, just wasn't sure of the little trink it parts to complete the job.

    Thanks

    its a pic of my last boat

    I NEED THE INFO ON THE XS PLATES YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!!!!!

    I need to order the parts. I'm going to order Bob's SOLIDS if I don't get any info on those XS PLATES!!!

    My motor is a XS racing with HARDENED upper motor mounts!
    They are obviously busted, 2" of movement by pulling forward and aft on top of motor.

    I was looking for a parts list of everything I need to order to complete this job.

    Obviously upper mounts and powerhead base gasket BUT WHATELSE????

    THANKS

    None of your pictures work. XS has solid mounts already.

    WASN'T A PIC OF THE PROBLEM! THAT WAS MY SIGNATURE!

    I know it had RIGID MOUNTS, they are busted!

    I need a parts list to complete the JOB!

    Since everyone was posting AMEN to XS PLATES I wanted to know WTF they were!

    I'M going with SOLID ALUMINUM Bob's Machine mounts.

    I was looking for a list of parts that I will need when lifting the powerhead off the mid section to get at the upper mounts.

    EXAMPLE: power head base gasket, radius zip ties, or any other parts.

    I have completed a solid upper motor mount job on an older motor, never did it on an Optimax and it is well out of warranty.

    Thanks for all the help. I'll figure it all out on my own.

    You have an XS, so you already have the XS adapter plate that Joe54 is talking about. The mount system on the XS is not the same as the EFI, that you did, but having said that you will need the same gaskets and zip ties that you used when you changed mounts on your EFI.

    looking at parts pictorials, anything that might have come loose in there?

    Anyway to switch adapter plate to accept older style mounts like Bob's Machine solids?

    THANKS
