Motor and transmission mounts

Post by seekinhighhp »

How many transmission and motor mounts do these cars have?

I'm curious because I'm wanting to try the hockey pick mounts and wonder if the work just for the front engine mount only or both motor and trans mounts? I'm also going to replace them this weekend.

There is the front motor mount(puck), rear Trans mount on the cradle under the rack, drivers Trans mount on the frame inside wheel well and passenger motor mount on the frame and it is integrated with a bracket to the oil pan.

Pucks replace the front trans mount which is easily visible from up top, by the ABS pump. The other mounts don't have issues failing like the front one does.

The rear mount is prone to failure, especially when the front is bad, but it's not fixable with hockey pucks. It's totally different.
