Default Not happy with 1LE mount

Just put the mount in and i'm not impressed. Shifter moves just as much as it did before, now it even vibrates at idle. I also get a nice vibration through the center counsole under hard acceleration, worse than i did with the old mount. What the hell?

The added vibrations are due to the harder rubber. It is a trade-off for less transmission movement.

I did notice that the stick did move @1.5" up and down with the 1LE mount. This I cannot explain, but mine did it, my friend's does it, and your's does it, so I'd write it off as normal.

My car broke the 1LE trans mount <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> , so I replaced it with a poly one from Energy Suspension. The vibrations increased a lot, but the trans doesn't move, plus I haven't broken it yet <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Not so far, in fact, so far I have noticed no detrimental effects.

Ryan

Have you notices any increase in KR? Any false knock?

I thought that the harder mounts would cause this.
