Poly Motor Mount Issues

Jack B · June 8th, 2008, 08:31 AM

I bought the poly transmission mounts from someone on the forum about a year ago. I just tried to put them on. These are the mounts that have the preload plate on the top side. These have a GM kit number. They would not work on my car (97 GTS). They raise the back of the transmission approximately 1/2". The transmission cannot be raised this 1/2" because the top hits the console at about 1/4" above the stock height.

I know our cars are all a bit different, but, has anyone experienced this issue and if so what was the work-around.

Jack your thread title says, " Poly Motor mounts" btw..

I bought the poly trans mount (Energy Suspension trans mount 1036) from Summit and installed it on my 2001 ACR without the preload plate. Everything's been fine.

That's the same installation suggestion that had been posted in VA more than once over the last few years regarding using that poly plate
