Zoldman Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 All, From searching till I'm lost, I know that the pinion end of the diff wants to raise up under heavy throttle/load, and that its good to limit this motion to maintain good u joint angles. What does the output end of the trans want to do under load? I'm guessing it wants to raise up also, because of the posts I've read about tearing the rubber trans mounts and the poly mounts being able to resist this better. Am I correct in this thinking? Both diff and trans want to raise up under load? If so, does the poly trans mount prevent the trans from lifting, or is it good to fit some kind of restraint on the end of the trans as well? Thanks Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The transmission is bolted to the engine so it twists parallel to the chassis centerline. The diff is unique in that its changing motion 90 degrees so the twisting torque becomes perpendicular to the chassis centerline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veritech-z Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I have a question about the uerethane tranny mount bushings: Would installing that help with 5th gear popout? Or is that worn synchros? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
