The upper and lower will work, the tranny will not as it's completely different.

I have the BWoody... so far no problems.

Try the Polybushings inserts if you can't find a solid one. It's a hell of a lot cheaper doing it this way.

if you can find a wrecked manual at a yard take it off there and fill it then swap. That's my plan.

I believe modern only sells the torque strut inserts.

Whey does polybushing list the trans insert "including srt" if the 2 are different?

Interesting. Is it possible that the actual rubber inside the srt mount is the same shape as ours, and it's just the mounting that's different? That might explain it if that polyurethane insert does fit the srt.

I'm not sure if that's the site I got my trans mount insert from, but it looked identical.

inserts are probably the same.....just the srt4s use the bigger tranny which in fact would call for a different mount

I used 3M WindowWeld silicone sealant. It dries pretty firm, but driving the car, it doesn't feel like it made a huge difference. I don't know if the polyurethane inserts are any better.

I believe that delrin resin is the toughest thing you can stick in there, next to a solid piece of metal stock. There was a site that had different stiffness levels of urethane also, but I can't remember off the top of my head.

its not to shaky you can definitely see the motor moves less if you rev it and with ac on at idle it vibrates quite a bit

I have agp doggone mounts and they don't shake that much but some complain about everything. If the shaking bothers ya go back to stock. I like feeling my car it tells me if there is a problem and tells me when it's happy. Coilovers, solid mounts, strut bars and sways I'm also doing a full prothane kit and dcr rear control arms. Stiffer the better *that's what she said*

Just FYI there's a guy on neons.org who does nice filled mounts. I got a front mount from him a few weeks ago. Click here.
