Default 4l80e & A4 torque arm mount....WTF!!!

guys is this the correct TA bushing mount whatever I should be using with my 4l80e setup??? Im a M6 guy and never seen a TA mount like this. This is what the dealership sold me and said was the stock A4 TA mount. I DO NOT see how the hell this is going to work with the Yank crossmember?? What the hell is that long *** stud on there for??

Umm no. The rod is like 5 times too long. My tranny mount did come with the car, id go and try get a tranny mount for like a truck or van that had the 4l80e's. I got my tranny out of a 2001 Chevy Van and used the mount, i did have to turn it 180 degrees for better fitment. I dont know what that is they gave you.
Ill find a picture later today.

I misunderstood, Torque arm not tranny mount...
I used a BMR torque arm bushing. Yank sell one? I had the same issue, BMR didnt send a bushing cuz they assume you can use your stock one, well I sold it with my m6 so i called up BMR and ordered another one.

You have to get a poly mount for your T/A they are around $20.00
it is not made for the stock rubber one.

You've got the right piece, well half of it. There should be another side to it. See the two rivits? I grinded them down and removed the rubber piece. I also did the same thing on the other piece (your missing piece) placed them on the TA and clamped them in the TA mount. Worked like a charm!
