Trans Mounts - TTR, Powell or ZZP???
So far I've heard good about TTR's and Powells Trans Mounts, but Haven't heard anything at all about ZZP's. I see they give 110% money back satisfaction guaranteed.
Any one try ZZP's? Anyone try multiple to compare?
Also Engine mounts. So if Trans mounts are suppose to leave you with no hop at all, and I keep seeing engine mounts are suppose to help with hop, then I'm guessing they don't do much, if the trans mounts leave you with 0 hop. Doesn't sound worth it to buy aftermarket engine mounts if you don't need to.
So thoughts on Trans Mounts?
What are your opinions on these three vendors mounts?

I was really close to getting Powells budget mounts, but decided on OTTPs S1 mounts at the last moment due to a sale they had.
I figured, it'll probably work good. Except there was this little triangle thing that I didn't install because I didn't know what it was. So I took off the stock and put on the OTTP. Was that triangle thing supposed to be on?

Even though we dont carry, nor sell what you are asking, we will still help you out, here is the answer (we are not a vendor that says "you didn't buy from us, so it sucks to be you"):
Remove the rear tranny mount (3 bolts), place the spacer under the rear mount, re install the 3 factory bolts; The spacers raises the rear mount, to space it away from the frame.

Nice try but, the forum post date states it all Big boy John, you added the photo AFTER we quoted you, you were mad that he didn't purchase from you and wanted to show it. Until we pointed it out. ALL members have their OWN choices on what they want to buy. We are still willing to help as we are here to support and help ALL members, just not earn a paycheck:

Well damn, I feel idiotic. I'll fix it today. It's only had about 1500 miles like this, I hope it's okay. Thanks for the tip
Check the voided bushing in the front mount ;it may well have torn from the the stress in torsion. This has happened in the past, when folks do the same thing as you, and make an inproper install on my mounts; I replaced them at no charge in that case, although its not a defect in the part. In your case, I am not sure what you do if it is torn.

i chose other cause i have OTTP stage 2 mounts n i love them. they were easy to install n work as they are advertised. i have no input on any others brands cause i have no experience with them. i guess if i was gonna make a choice i would go with zzp. But if im not mistaking, dont OTTP get their Rotated Trans mounts from Powell? someone correct me if im wrong.
same principal but different way of achieving it not anywhere close to the same. that's like saying xbox is ripping off ps3 cause they released another game console. there's only so much you can differentiate. and from the general consensus ttr made the better product
. people can swing off whoever they want to at the end of the day i buy the best product not from the most popular or cool person to buy from.
