Put the car on blocks, I use ramps because the car is a pain to jack up. Place a floor jack under the transmission oil pan, use a pice of wood or something that will go all the way across the pan. Don't jack directly on the pan with the jack, you can dent or bow in the pan and the would be bad. There are 2 bolts that hold the mount to the transmission and one the bolts the transmission to the cross member. unbolt all three, then using the jack you can jack the transmission up to gain enough clearance to remove the old one and install the new, the part only costs $13.00, I have broken a few. You may also have to remove the bolt from the exhaust bracket, I did not have to on mine.
It's a transmission mount.
I know from expirience that the manual trans has two. One is called the right trans mount, near the motor, and the other is the rear trans mount located directly under the trans. You can use a pry bar the lift up on the trans and see if the mount is broken. the rear mount is about fifty bucks, and is easy to replace, its mounted with only four or five bolts.
Replace it.
There is only one transmission mount and it is on the very back of the trans.
raise the car undo the nut on the bottom of the mount rais the tailshaft of tranny undo the 2 bolts that hold the mount to tranny remove mount. installation is opposite of removal
i would rather not...
tire or wheel out of balance? broken mount on rear of transmission. I have seen where the threads for the bolts into the trans are ripped out.
It is really very simple. With the car on jacks, I assume you mean the front trans mount, it is round, so is the rear mount, support the engine and just start taking the bolts out that connect the mount. If you have air tools, this will help you with the job, but you can do it without. Once you have the mount in your hand, then just replace it with the new one, only fits one way, then tuck the mount back into place, and bolt to the frame and trans.
1999 firebird doing the same thing... the trans has a support mount that has a piece of rubber that touches the trans to keep the trans stable. after time the rubber wears out and you will replace the trans mount. dont take it to the dealer it is costly and the part is around $40. you will have to raise the car up to exchange..Look under car to find the part its right between the bucket seats good luck
I think there is only one. on the crossmember bar. support the trans, remove the crossmember and take the mount off and replace.
Remove nut holding the trans mount to the crossmember jack trans up off of the crossmember then hand wrench bolts out of trans and reverse process.
