ok, so i'm in the middle of my 5 speed swap and somehow i missed that the crossmember and transmission mounts are 2 separate peices... ok, i admit that i'm a bone head.

i bought a new mount but missed the crossmember

so what is the difference really?

i just don't want my gf to drive me all the way out to the junkyard, just so i can leave them scratching their heads wondering how the hell i got the thing off

thanks

Trans mounts should be the same you just need the manual cross member to make it work.
