[Clint3240]

whenever there is a load on the rear end i hear this slam and its big, only happens when i give it a lot of gas but it dosnt when i take it easy. whan can it be?

[unvc92camarors]

broken tranny mount is my gues
i had the same thing. id stop and hit the gas, and hte tranny would slam the floorboard hard

Yup, sounds like it may be a tranny mount problem. I had 2 f-bodies that had the same symptoms and it was the tranny mount both times.

Word, tranny mount busted made mine do the same thing.

[Clint3240]

also what caused the problem is i was reving it and my stupid friend put it in gear..i had it at like 5 grand and ever since it slams..still tranny mount?

[unvc92camarors]

yea, revvin it at 5k and then throwing it in gear isnt good (neutral bomb city)
yea, still tranny mount, mine cost i think...about 20-30 bucks or somethin- just standard replacement

[Clint3240]

where can i pick one up? and is there a certain shape or size depending on where it goes?

[unvc92camarors]

well, my uncles a mechanic, and i think he just went to wilcox auto parts (im not sure if this chain pertains to just cincy or not).
if you dont have one near ya, i think you could special order it from advance or autozone.
just tell them what your lookin for and theyll get you a new one.
no real certain size that i know of..itll prob just be a stock replacement

You could get a 1LE tranny mount also.

[Clint3240]

how long will it take to put in? do i have to jack the tranny up to make it fit?
