Stock trans mount

Post by milehighXR »

I'm fairly sure I need a new trans mount isolator, the rubber bit that holds the trans to the metal bracket that supports the trans. I didn't see any on MC2, and I didn't see any on Merkur Depot. Waiting for Jeff to get back to me. Looks like Rapido doesn't do any ordering or catalog viewing on the web, so I'd have to call and ask them. That'll be Friday project if Jeff doesn't have any.

Are there any other sources for these? Or will I be making something else fit?

Hi all,

I seem to remember that the Scorpio one was usable if turned around. (?) That was an A4LD transmission which is derived from a C3. Yours an auto? '88 T-bird mounts would be what I would look for auto or manual. Just a thought.

Rapido has them, I ordered one last Monday and had it by Wednesday.
When I asked, MerkurDepot nor Jeff had any.

Scorpio auto trans and XR manual trans use the same mount. 88' (at least) XR auto trans mount is different.

YMMV
