I think I just found something else I never knew I couldn't live without! Chip, how long is that price good for? My birthday is in another 2 weeks and I will drop some hints, but if I don't get it I will for sure be ordering one!
Is it available in any other colors by chance?

Pfadt Transmission Mount
Thanks, I kind of figured that but it wasn't immediately apparent in the photo on your web site. A view from an angle would be beneficial.
Can you weigh in on the question about benefits with the DTE brace?
Also, can the differential brace be stand-alone or is the engine mount required to take advantage of this setup?

The Pfadt Engine and Transmission mounts can be used alone or together. Both the engine and transmission see a substantial amount of movement. So we recommend replacing both engine and transmission mounts.

Get creative on dropping hints. Maybe change your computers home page to this
May not be very subtle though!
As far as the color they only come in Pfadt Orange.

How hard is the engine mount install?....if you are not doing engine replacement!

It's a bit of work, but not to bad
I have a PDF if you want it...
Peace

Oh Chip, old buddy, old friend....You know I need one of these but just didn't think it would take this long to tell you to get me one...
I think I'm going to need one bad with the new setup.
BTW: Do you offer installation.

Not an issue on the ABS
I did not need to re-route any lines, but I did have to manipulate the lines a little to get them to pass under the brace arms.
The instructions read "re-route" if needed...

Got mine in and put some miles on it. "Clutch chatter" and wheel hop are gone, amen. Only potential downside is more noticeable transmission of drivetrain vibration to the car and shifter, but hey, if you are installing one of these ride quality probably isn't number one on your list.

How was the install?
What kind of shifter do you have?
