Any hint at it failing I'll be asking for a refund and buying Ultra's. |

How much is this Creative Trans Mount? And how much did it translate vibrations? | Not sure on the price, and I'll know tomorrow night about the vibrations when I get my car back....

That happened on mine, but I really don't think the studs have any place to go. Failure to me would be seperation, but yes a poor design.
If Ultra's had came out only days sooner I would have bought his. From what I'm hearing Ulta's is superior, not rocket science that UUC should have tacked down the bolts, and added something inside the brackets for the urethane to better adhere to. |

Well I consider the spinning bolts a minor failure. But when I get the car on the ground and go down the street with it and it makes a noise (almost as loud as when a trans mount will fail and trans bumps against the floor) I consider that an epic fail.
Luke is stepping up and sending me another UUC Mount as he thinks it's an isolated incident. If this one does the same thing, I'm done with UUC anything.

any chance of selling the motor mounts and tranny mount as a "kit" or something? I am getting ready to do the motor mounts but if the price worked out I would just do them all at once! |

How much is this Creative Trans Mount? And how much did it translate vibrations? | ULTRA MOUNTS trans mount is $130 shipped. Where the heck is PlatinumCavette when you need him. Yo...Damon....we need a vibration report. Quote:

Someone just mentioned a few posts ago that we're over $100 cheaper as it is and our bolts are welded in and don't spin. Now, are we going to have any more talk about this?

no worries, I plan on ordering the motor mounts in the next few weeks from you no matter what! I'm just the type that would buy the kit to save a few bucks. either way you will be getting some of my money! just not as much as if it was a kit  | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
