Group N tranny mount

I know lots of people have done it....they say it is easy.

 

I just haven't seen any instructions anywhere how to do it...I did search but I didn't find anything.

It's pretty easy. You just need a floor jack and a few tools. I did mine back in 04' with a STI mount. Made a huge difference when shifting. It takes a lot of slop out of the drive train. Just be careful you install it centered, some people were hitting the exhaust pipe with there mount. I didn't see that to be a problem.

Its fairly easy, I recommend dropping the whole crossmember when you install it. It made it so much easier for me to take the stocker out and put the new on it. Also its a good time to install the Group N crossmember bushings.

Literally just finished doing this 3 hrs ago. Not difficult at all, I didn't use any instructions or anything. Once you get the car in the air, it's pretty self explanatory. As recommended above, taking off the entire crossmember will be your best bet most likely. At first I just loosened the crossmember to take the stock mount out, but to put the GroupN in, I ended up removing the whole thing anyways.

Such a great upgrade for the $

What about the cross member mounts? Should I do those too?

I installed the crossmember bushings, tranny mount, and kartboy rear bushing on mine, already had a Kartboy STS and front bushings. I can't tell you the difference between having the crossmember bushings and not having them because I installed them both at the same time, but with everything I've got on my car my shift feel has improved a lot. I'd recommend doing it all, you'll be happy you did.

You have to take the crossmember out anyways. The bushings are like $30. For me it was a no-brainer.

do you have to have a jack to hold the trany in place after you take the cross member out?

Yes.
