Hey everyone,
So from a previous thread I posted how my transmission cable retaining clip kept popping off and I couldn’t figure out why.
A previous member recommended for me to add a washer to the cable bracket as the rubber washers on the bracket can get compressed and cause the bracket to not fully torque. Well when I started working on the car I found the issue, the rear motor/transmission mount wasn’t even bolted in, the bracket had broken off where the bolt holes are.
I have a 98 eclipse and got a replacement bracket from a 1996 eclipse but when I attempted to install the mount I can’t get the bolt next to the speed sensor to line up, it’s always a half an inch off.
Any suggestions how to get this mount on? I tried for 2 hours and I can’t get it to line up perfectly and I don’t want to leave a bolt out
