Re: Trans. Mount Did it!

["Jason" <jason87vw@nac.net>]

Well, mine was the same way, even when I took it out I noticed that the new
one looked like it had more rubber on it than the old one! But, It was REAL
rubbery, and could easily be stretched back and forth, as opposed to the new
one. Interesting note: I could not believe how easy this was. I have very
raw mechanical skills, and it usually takes me a long time to complete a
project. This took about 30 minutes. I have replaced this mount on two of my
past Rocs, and it was a bitch, I believe it was because this one was not
completely torn (like the others) , and the whole trans. didn't shift
(position that is)...
