727 TF Rear Mount on E-Body issue #299455 04/25/09 10:08 PM 04/25/09 10:08 PM

It's supposed to press into the bracket but the aftermarket mount is way to loose. Do they make urethane mounts and a new bracket? The bracket is sheet metal formed in a u-shape and holds the rubber mount. The current doesn't hold the tranny in the right spot to have the right drive shaft angle to the pinion. It appears to be cocked to the right when looking from the tranny toward the rear end. From the side of the car it looks like the drive shaft is lower than the rear pinion right out of the tail shaft of the tranny! I've had a serious vibration for some time and I think this stinken rear mount is the issue. I've put new u-joint in the drive shaft and had it balanced so I'm quite confident it's not that. Any help is appreciated. 1999 Dodge 3/4ton Cummins 24 Valve, 4x4

Even if the rubber is replaced with poly bushings, the sleeve needs to be welded to the bracket. The INTERNET, the MISinformation superhighway

How about the angle of the drive shaft to the rear pinion? I took a few measurements tonight and "trigged" it out. The angle from the tail shaft to the pinion looking from the tail shaft to the rear end equals 3.8 degrees to the right. Isn't is supposed to be in-line with no angle? Again thanks for the help! 1999 Dodge 3/4ton Cummins 24 Valve, 4x4

If you don't want to post it, that's fine, but could you send it via PM? Thanks again for the info on the rear mount! 1999 Dodge 3/4ton Cummins 24 Valve, 4x4
