Review on Westar EM 2778 Auto Trans Mount by Brian Trotter

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Really difficult to change

Not sure if I should give 3 or 4 stars. Seems to be of good quality, the only problem was that it was larger than the old one so it was more difficult to get in than to take the old one out. I'm not sure if the old one was "old" enough, i.e. flattened, or if this one is actually more shaped. The lugs are definitely a quarter inch longer. If the motor mount is indeed bad or you pulled the motor out I wouldn't replace it unless you have about 4 hours and don't know what to do with it. Since the front motor mount was worn out I thought it would be a good idea to swap out the rear one, but after everything was done I still wasn't sure if it was worth the time. I think if you loosened the rack and pinion or maybe removed the stabilizer bar the job would be a lot easier. I ended up cutting the bolts as short as possible but left the nut fully tightened.

Pros
  • Gearbox and Gearbox
Cons
  • So far so good
