So the crossmember brace that goes from the front towards the back and has 2 of the motor mounts on it doesn't want to fit in place now that I put a manual it. It can be bolted in but its pushed up against the transmission sleeve (the thing that bolts onto the transmission on the bottom to keep grime from going into it)
The motor isn't sitting exactly how its supposed to but I was hoping to remedy this by putting in the crossmember. Only issue is now it leans up on the transmission sleeve. So is there a different crossmember between automatic and manual GTs or is the motor just in so much of a bind its making it seem like it wouldn't work properly? |

I was thinking the subframe would work either way but it was just being such a pain trying to get it all to fit with the motor so unaligned. Its already snapped the EGR vacuum valve and shredded the accessory cause it won't sit correctly. I even lowered the A-arms just so I'd have more room to play with the crossmember.
I got all new mounts but I didn't order the plate that the driver mount sits on ontop of the transmission, instead I just took a grinder and cut off the extra piece and sized up the holes so the bolts would fit in correctly. I'm gonna try to bolt it all up and see if it doesn't align itself. This post has been edited by travisxcore: Nov 23, 2012 - 3:58 PM |
