I was getting ready to tackle replacing the transmission mounts. I went to Pelican, but the only offering that looked like the stock mounts was a URO part. Just wondering if there are any other manufacturers for this part?
Pelican also had a WEVO blue pillow and black pillow mount listed, but at $90 each they seemed a little pricey. Not that I wouldn't buy them, but I haven't heard anything about them and would rather go the stock mount type if available from someone other than URO. |

911 "sport" engine(!) mounts is what you want.
For me they have always bolted right up but some people report that they had to open up the mounting holes on the mounts a little bit. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-8642-1293647522.jpg) |
