Rear motor mount 1991 A/T
 

My 1991 EX Accord SW developed a vibration recently that I have
attributed to the motor mounts (180,000 miles). I've replaced the
front mount and planned to replace the rear when I encountered some
confusion in the replacment parts. Aftermarket parts do not appear to
have the vibration damping assemble that came with the original.
There appears to be a vacuum motor adjustment that connects to the
mount. The after market mounts have the bracket to support the vacuum
motor BUT do not have the adjustment it connects to in the mount. My
question: How does this vibration damper work, and can I use a mount
that doesn't contain it? The design looks like overkill to me.

I can't answer all of your questions but I can point you to
http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...catdisplay.jsp which lists
the rear motor mount for an AT wagon for about $188. The mount shown
appears to come with the vacuum motor that you've described. You can also
find a copy of the factory service manual at
