F35 Upper Transmission Mount

I have been working on this for a little while and finally have a design that I feel will work best.
This is designed to work with stock mounts and rotated mounts. The body side bracket is slotted so that you can get it in the best position possible.

I just ordered material to make a couple hundred of these and they will be available January 21st. Retail price will be $159.99 For the next 2 weeks I will be offering them for a pre-sale price of $100 plus shipping. You can order one here.
OTTP Upper Trans Mount


Here is a picture of the prototype parts used for test fitting. This is slightly different than the production part will be. This is a 3 piece part and the production is 2 piece. Production also has more machining to reduce weight.




These are pictures of the drawing's for the production pieces.

The stock mount is so flimsy that it allows the trans to drop down on that side during hard cornering. Have you ever played with the stock mount?

The stock mount flops around quite easy. Also seen many come loose from trans with no explanation. I'm eager to see some testing on these.

I'm glad to see the aftermarket community is still going strong and innovating for our little auto.

Nice work!

How does the bushing compare to the OEM bushing? Is the bushing bigger or smaller than the OEM? Similar durometer but solid rubber?

I don't think it will work on any other trans. I am looking into making an f23 design though.

Yes they will help with that.

It's a smaller bushing and slightly firmer durometer.

hey josh... I have your stage 2 engine mounts... will these compliment/enhance each other? Will there be more vibrations with this?

I currently have barely any wheel hop - as rice said, will these help the trans jerkiness when you're on and off the throttle?? I've been wanting to find a fix for that for years.

How's the increase in interior vibrations?
I'd imagine if it's still rubber vibrations wouldn't increase too much...
