Grind is gone baby
Just a heads up. Installed the new tranny mounts and I have not grinded at all. Tranny has a notchier feel but it seems to have eliminated my grinding going into second. It is awesome being able to slam into second gear and get ALL the power down. Feels good. RE tranny mounts $50. Did about fifteen stop and go's from first to second up to 8k shifting w/o hesitation. Went right into gear and the tires rip off second gear. NICE. Install was a bitch as the studs are longer on the RE mounts compared to the stock ones. This makes it tricky. I used a angled Craftsman 3/8 ratchet to get to the top mount bolts. No exhaust removal, just took down part of the heatshield. 45 minutes including jacking car.
You need to remove the tranny crossmember first then loosen the top mount bolts.
