| Post subject: | Upper Trans Mount |
While I was installing the industrial air filter I noticed a crack in my upper trans mount. This mount was already there and I planned to make it better but now I have a big hole in the tubing. Do you think it will be ok to jut weld the hole and make a new mount welded on the bottom of the bar. I have seen a few mounts but if you have time post some pictures of yours so I can see other ideas. Check the last picture of what I plan to do. Do I really need this mount if I have tubing supporting the stingers, a nose cone mount, trans straps front and rear and a welded in mid lower mount? ![]() ![]() ![]()

Brad weld up the tube and make a wider bracket like you planned. That mount was too narrow for what it does, and yes keep the upper mount. |

Definatly keep the top trans mount. It ties the frame into the trans and adds a lot of strengh. The drawing you show is similar to mine and a good design. It spreads the load across way more surface than your original mount.
