[QUOTE="Boonie Buster, post: 1075565, member: 15974"] See, now that was a concern of mine, even before this whole torque mount thing showed up, was i was afraid that these spring bushing mounts i am gonna use would be harder than my motor mounts (s-10, 2.8l to chevy 350 motor mounts, aka solid metal to stock rubber mount on frame rail) resulting in two different amounts of "holding power" as in the motor will flex over further than the t-cases, stressing the tranny housing(my biggest concern right now) I really need some pics of some tried and true setups, torque mount or not... I just am afraid of splitting something i just repaired...aka trans.:booo: My setup and plans: 350/700r4/203/205. There are two holes on the back part of the 700r4 that i am going to make a crossmember from frame rail to frame rail to support the trans up with and build off of for a front trans. pan belly skid. Then I have to figure out how i am going to mount/cradle the dual cases (i didn't look to hard at my adapter yet, but i didnt see any "provided" mounting on it at all:eeek: ) and then possibly the torque bar, which would still have a spring hanger bushing mounting it to the frame(i assume this is what the people who broke their t-case/trans. did NOT have. They had a solid mount, with NO bushing, if i am understanding this correctly:eeek: ) EDIT: so maybe some new harder compound motor mounts are in order here also, since the ones i have are fairly old and will give more under torque...
