Here you can see the before and after of the
transmission mount installation. The new poly
bushing does a good job a making sure the
transmission does not jump about. However,
there is a bit more engine vibration transmitted
into the cabin of the vehicle. |

| In
an attempt to limit torque steer, I took a
tip from Mike at SPG9 and modified my front
and rear engine mounts. After thoroughly cleaning
them, I cut a piece of old radiator hose and
slipped it over the engine mount plate and
secured it using silicon. As you can see in
the photo, it reduces the amount of travel
between the mount and the U-bracket. |

| The
purpose of this photo is to show the difference
in thickness from the stock front sway bar
and the SAS bar. The diffence in bushing size
clearly shows how much bigger the SAS bar
is. I also installed a set of the Abbott/PowerFlex
front wishbone bushings. |

| The
"dog bone" bushings really help to keep the
engine from jumping about under full throttle.
