Re: TMM 2.1
You have an open car. I vote solid. In a full bodied baja, that saw considerable commute time bushed.
Mine is solid bellhousing and mid mount.

Baja5 was right...

Re: TMM 2.1
The only other advice is that I think you are running a fairly heavy combination (compared to an ACVW engine instead of) water-cooled engine and transaxle. As long at there isn't any strain; e.g., flexing coming in at the bolted connections; either the tranny to bell housing or bell housing to engine using either type of mounts you should be OK.

yes all solid. My bellhousing mounts do not have bushings.Turbo_Manx_Maniac wrote:Are all your mounts solid? I could drill out the top bellhousing mount and sleeve it to make it solid. My nosecone mount is definately getting cut off.Punchdrunk Monkey wrote:I have heard not to mount the transaxle in 3 points as the third point will crack. I only use the bellhousing mount and the mid-mount. I cut the bolts off at the nosecone.

Re: TMM 2.1
Got lucky, turns out I pushed the pinion nut through the pinion bearing, however since I didn't drive it far I did no other damage. Going to upgrade to a Weddle R&P and chromolly nut, otherwise would have been a very cheap repair.
Going to modify the mid mount to a 2 bolt per side solid mount, change the bellhousing top mounts to solid and cut off the existing nose cone mount.

Re: TMM 2.1
Back together and running.
Working in the garage reminds me how bad normal radio is. Same old used up songs and too many commercials.
Went to Bestbuy and got a bluetooth adapter and that made things sooooo much better. Found a bunch of bands on Pandora I really like, hillbilly hellcats, lots more of the Reverend, cramps, and PDM has been trying to get me to check out hank williams iii, that dude is fricking out there.

I did the Weddle route with my 091, but I did all the internals with their parts.

I prefer Slacker Radio over Pandora. Anything is better than the radio station.

Re: TMM 2.1
I saw reverend hortin live at a biker bar in yuciapa I think it was angels road house. I went wearing a Mongol support shirt I got from a buddy I knew the night didn't last long. Jiu jitsu can be a horrible thing for someone that doesn't know what's going on. U may think I'm trying to hump u but I'm only going to choke u or snap a joint . Good show though bass player is way cool
I just wanna drive it that's it.
