Chuck, as an owner of an older Cherokee 180 as well, I'd also look at the
motor mount Lord isolators. There is very little clearance between the
green tubular bracket at the back of the carburettor (which holds the
throttle & mixture cable sheathes) an dthe motor mount tubes. If the lord
mounts sag even a little this green tubular bracket touches the motor

mount
and makes a very impressive vibration.

Thanks for the tip Aaron. I'll remember to look at the speciifc point.

Many people do not realize the amount an engine moves while running. It is
even pulled forward some.

Try to have at least 1/2 inch clearance or more.
