Unfortunately I must have over looked the part about putting the spacers in when I was installing my OTTP Stage 2 Transmission mounts..
As you can see..
The rear mounting bracket pictured here
Used to be one piece.. Now it's two.

Okay and pictured here you can see the Spacers that were supposed to be installed, but weren't..

The front mount.. Not pictured.. The bracket just bent and it's not bending back out anytime soon.. So it's holding just fine without spacers, fortunately.
So I need a new mounting bracket for the rear transmission mount..
Where to buy where to buy.

PM Tom@CED. I would say call, but since you're in Germany that might get pricy. lol
Just guessing, but since they rock, they might be able to help you out and working something out with the APO thing.

I already ordered the bracket..
I don't know why I didn't think of putting them on when I saw how much space there was between the bracket and the mount.
