GeneralDisorder Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I've been meaning to do this for a while - my stock 4 speed transmission mounts were flat like day old soggy cereal. I had previously filled them with urethane, but the rubber underneath was just too far gone, and they disitigrated on my last off road venture leaving my transmission sitting directly on the cross-member - I'm not kidding when I say METAL-ON-METAL.... disturbing to say the least. I abhor the design of these crappy EA81 mounts, and I was loath to spend $38 each on new mounts. I found some cheap aftermarket direct fit ones for about $10 at rockauto.com only to get a phone call from them saying they were out of stock, and they called the manufacturer.... who is also out of stock and has no ETA for more. That left me with little alternative but to design something new Here it is - the path to transmission mount enlightenment - EA82 mounts for the EA81: (lots of pictures and write up on the subject) http://home.comcast.net/~trilinear/4speed_mounts.html Here's a teaser photo for those with slow connections: GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry DeMoss Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Thank you for posting this!I think this will be a mod I will do in the near future when my little ea81 decides to make more power! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carfreak85 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Did this ever get saved somewhere else? The link is dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) Did this ever get saved somewhere else? The link is dead. I might have found the correct pictures to that link in my foggy archives. I didn't take these though. ALL rights "preserved" and all that.... ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I hope these are the correct pictures. I don't think I still have the text. Let me know. I hope this helps Edited May 11, 2014 by Crazyeights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
