Let me know, I may need them but I'm leaning towards aftermarket because why not. Still not 100% sure though. Thanks
Stock, i know you said aftermarket but if they can help then they are yours...lmk

Yea on my car I didn't loosen the trans mount either but I did have to loosen the dog bone when dropping the motor back down. But check the motor mounts see if that helps first.

Ever since then I get crazy vibrations 50% of the time when blipping my throttle stopped. Also, when driving certain potholes, bumps, or when I shift will make my car sound like it has a blown front passenger strut, it's getting worse and worse and yesterday even sounded like the driver side.
Watchu guys think? Motor mount? Tranny mount? Both?

The motor mounts were torqued back on and definitely aren't loose.

Let me know your thoughts and or if you have mounts (pretty much only looking for new).

IIRC someone on here also makes the mounts, anyone got their screen name?

Thanks!

Are they stock mounts?? They were probably pretty beat to begin with. Maybe one of em tore a bit when you jacked up the motor.

Flatironstuning has a good price for group n trans and motor mounts.

I doubt the pitch stop got all jacked up, but that's worth taking a look at too if your motor mounts appeared to be fine.

yea I think they tore or the tranny mount did maybe. Damn that is a good price though. can anyone attest to Group N? Might just pull the trigger on both engine mounts, tranny mount, and dog bone

I'd pass on the dog done. Im sure its an upgrade but doesnt look too much beefier. I got a perrin on sale for like 75 bucks I think.

You can deselect it and get just the engine mounts and trans mount, but they accidently sent me the bone anyways when I got mine lol.

Let me know if you need anything, and a lot of those guys who ask about stuff on Instagram I've replied to several of their messages of wanting to buy something and they never reply or just waste my time. Thus I have some what stopped responding because it's a waste of time. If someone does indeed want something they will contact me.
