Prothane tranny mount mod
I have only had my SS 35th LE for a week. It has prothane tranny and motor mounts. I had a vibration which I did not like. I did some research here and found the tranny mount is the issue. I dropped the tranny crossmember support and put some rubber between the mount and crossmember and took it for a drive and what a difference!! It's not perfect, but the vibration is significantly reduced. I will drive like this for another week or so to see if it gets worse or stays as is. If any are interested, I will report back in a week.

I will tell you that if you ever upgrade to prothane motor mounts, the vibrations totally disappear. I always ran my tranny mount without the center plate until i got my m mounts.

I have prothane engine and tranny mounts but im not sure if the vibration i have is the same as what you guys are talking about. If i go wide open on the freeway all the way to fifth, it hums and vibrates pretty good. everything in the center console shakes and so does the passenger seat. I wasn't sure if that was because of my chassis mounted torque arm or something else..

when i switched to the poly mount i had vibrations too. but the poly mount is taller than the stocker so u need to put spacers under the trans cross member to put the drive shaft angle back to where it belongs. did the same for my friends a4 lt1 camaro and solved the vibration issue as well
