My UUC Track transmission mounts came!

[Jon K]

Project for tomorrow! It looks like it anyway!

They're solid mounts with aluminum reinforcers... transmission vibration increases only minutely... stiffens drivetrain 200%

If they are soft/stock, your bell housing & end cone will be subject to the engine torque.

where from, how much, do they work.....

tell all once you have them installed and tested please

erm, martin... i hope you're joking?

If not, and unfortunately I think you're not... do you realize what difference track transmission mounts make?

Quoted from UUC website:

UUC Transmission Mount with TME 320i Mount with TME Stock BMW Mount
Height 34.3mm 35.9mm 34.3mm
Stud Size 8mm 10mm 8mm
Decrease in deflection 300%-450% 354% --

It's completely noticeable. There is some slight slight cabin vibration (think first gear when starting up a hill and letting RPMs dip...) if you can call it that, its just transferring more transmission movement into the chassis, but its not noticeable. G/F hasn't mentioned it yet.

in the good old racing days, putting on solid steel motor mounts with a rubber trans mount would guarantee a busted trans case. A solid trand mount with rubber engine mounts would guarantee a busted trans case.

just a thought.

Thanks for the warning jeff but they're not solid, theyre hard hard rubber, and they've been around for a long time... M3s use them no issue.

I used larger gearbox mounts for the early 320i. They are much beefier thant the e34 535 mounts, & were recommended by a local indy shop.
