Damn man.
I guess the saying is true, when it rains, it pours.

Good luck with the fix.

Ha yeah ! That saying was def the case in my situation today. All is good now, got everything fixed today and with daylight (had to call off work).

Instead of sourcing those M12x1.75 studs, I just purchased hex bolts in that same thread pitch with about 40mm in length.

So this is what it looked like once I was able to remove the old beat up motor mount. Both studs had snapped off inside of the block.



Again, I was able to resolve this issue with the good ol' drill through the center and hammer a torx bit socket into it and loosen





New OEM FORD motor mount installed today with the hex head bolts instead of studs. The OEM mount was about $100 more than the cheap vatozone one, however I was willing to spend the extra $100 for piece of mind as I've read the cheap vatozone brand blows out in about a month or less LOL!
