Default Tranny Mount

I've upgraded the motor mounts and now I'm needing to do the tranny mount/s (not sure if there's more then one being I've never been under it)..anyone have any suggestions of a good solid brand? Did some searching but came up short. It's for a 4L60E.

Thanks!

I never used that one, but always take them back out. The ones from energy susp. are way to hard. Vibrates the entire car bad. Tried on 3 cars and was very dissapointed each time. Oh and you could pick up an energy susp trans mount at any parts store.

I have an Energy Suspension one, never had any problems with it..

These Cars are supposed to be a little loud and rough around the edged AC, they aren't made to be Cadillacs..lol

I agree...not too worried about rattles or shaking cause she already does that anyways I just want a stronger mount for my build.

when its so bad it feel like its doing more bad then good youll take it out. Oh and its not just alittle bit, it sucks alot. I dunno maybe Its just me but my cars hated them. I have heard they soften up over time but It just plain sucked.

Maybe I should just wait until my build is done and see if the torque breaks the stock one

My UMI SFC's did the same thing

All that really matters is that it's running strong IMO.

What motor mounts did you install? I've heard the ls1 trans mounts are much better than the lt1 mounts. You can always give that a shot.
