Re: keep breaking trans mounts need help

check your eng mounts all mounts work together each taking there share of the torque from eng to rear, sounds like your tranny mount is taking more then its share of a twist torque since the rear end is not dirrectly attached to tranny but through a drive shaft driven by a twist torque. i up wind back at eng which is directly attached to tranny and if eng twists so does tranny
