Keep breaking tranny mounts.

[boostedjay32]

Hey everyone ,
I have a semi-stock 97 gst that keeps on breaking the tranny mount. This is my third one in 3 months atleast. the rubber is not torn if thats what your thinking. It is the actual metal. I was wondering what would of caused this. The car came with poly mounts(red ones) in the front and back . I filled the tranny mount and motor mount with polyurathane.. Could this be the problem? Im really tired of replacing the mount every month.Any help would be appreciated.

Take a look at your other mounts, Maybe there is another issue causing it to break.

Yea thats what im going to do but they are all fine but i have a feeling itsthe mount in the back o fthe motor that may be loose

So ive been doing some research and i think im missing some plate i think that bolts up to the tranny. Is this correct? Only two things are tying down the mount and its a little fishy to me. Can anyone post a picutre of thier 5 speed fwd tranny with the mount please.
