Transmission Mounts
I can't even find a mount for my 02 TA. I have checked all the local part stores and they all say they don't carry them. I did find one a the dealership for $101. That seems ridiculous to me. When I had my 94 Z28 I use to break them all of the time and could find them for around $25 each. Did I missing something? Did they change the mount from the LT1 4l60E to the LS1 4L60E?
It must be different, I'm not sure why or how. I looked on a few parts sites and found the same thing, LT1 trans mounts only. The LS1 mount is $56 on gmpartsdirect.com, that's a little better at least. Part number is 22174970.
i'm runnins ES tranny mount and it vibrates like a bitch at higher RPM,so i'm switching back to stock. here's the kicker, every stealership i called around my area price me between 120- 140 bucks for replacement stock tranny mount.
Also, I did some searching and it seems that the LT1 style mount will work on LS1 cars, you just have to buy a nut for the bolt in the mount since it is a different size thread.
hey guys,
I literally just got done installing an ES mount on my otherwise stock 97 LT1 A4; And from my road test on the streets and the freeway I can not tell the difference between this and the stocker (When it was good that is). No additional noise or vibration at all......I installed it per the ES supplied instructions (Plate included) even down to the torque specs

I used all poly and I like it. Torque arm bushing (which required some sort of **** lube substance), engine mounts, and trans mount. Got a good deal on the whole shebang for like $90. My mounts were toast and I kept breaking the transmission mount. I got the red ones, because everybody knows red = extra horsepower. LOL.
