Anyone that has used energy susp trans. mounts??

Coupe5oh · 12-25-2001, 04:17 AM

I installed the x-memeber ones first, then just put in the actual trans bushing in, being polyuerethane i realize its a little rough, but i like the solid feel, i have a question? do i need to use anything from the old rubber mount with this bushing? it seems to come with everything, but do i just mount it on the old mount? if you understand what i mean...heh, i think something isnt right on it.

i know i need the old fasteners, but do i just mount the bushing and the brass brackets, between the tranny and x-member, without the old mount?

thnx if you got that.

I used one for the TKO install (photos on my homepage).

You dont really need anything from the old one.

thats why then, i am also missing a fastener that goes into the trans, through the mount, i been using just one

im gonna go to a bolt place and match one up, i dont think hardware stores have them with threads like that, dragracing with a missing bolt isnt a good idea, thnx for all your help stangies....

With the old one you can excercise your throwing arm.
