I believe the TA relocation would help with the broken tranny mount issue as you would not have the extra stress of the TA trying to lift the trans off the mount.
Just seems logical to me.
Exactly what I hoping for..

I had the BMR unit on and it was the lowest piece under the car and the part which hung the lowest did not look condusive to taking a nice hit so i got rid of it. The piece above is a much better design.

I had mine installed on Wed. (UMI) Just like the one above. It mounts flush and is as flush as stock piece. I feel much better now that the TA is off the trans tail shaft.
Peace of mind is priceless!

My BMR unit is not near the lowest thing under my car. My exhaust will hit first then the deep tranny pan and then I might hit the BMR piece but if it hits its all over but the crying.

Forgot to post my results but I love this thing I feel much better with the TA not on the tranny anymore and I get no shifter shake now. The rear also feels very solid now but I also did lca's at the same time. I dont really notice any added vibration either maybe a tad but nothing worth mentioning or nothing that would keep you from wanting to buy this.
