has any1 used auto mount for manual swap

[jdmkid]

can i just reweld the auto mount in a new spot or do i have to go get a manual mount

[FDAccord]

#1) Manual tranny mount is stronger.
#2) If you don't cut and reweld.. your engine will be crooked and you'll probably pop an axle out.
#3) The mount is only 30 bucks at honda!

The new mount isn't that expensive from the dealer, and when you remove the old one from the car, you will most likely damage it. It will at least have holes in it from where you had to drill out the spot welds. Just hit up the dealer (even Majestic would probably have it, or San Leandro Honda . Check em out!

1. yes the manual mount is stronger.
2. my engine is not crooked and i used the auto mount, but we did fabricate a solid mount that connects to the tranny. left the mount on the fender well alone.


just make sure that you have someone weld it up nice and good. make sure you put some paint on it afterwards or you will run into rust problems. rust will give you all kinds of headaches.

i say do what this guy said. (FDAccord)

i never had to relocated the mount on my accord and it came stock as a auto, as for being stronger i dont know but my mounts are fine been like that for three years lots or ripping and torquin, with no problems

I had the part number sitting around here.. it's not on majestic honda's website but its a special order, best bet is to go to a dealership and have it next dayed to you.. you'll get it asap.. CPMIKE and t3h hot! have the part number..

that should be it... ask to see a diagram of it before actually buying it (recommend going to a dealer instead of using majestic) and make sure it looks like the white bracket in this photo.



note that you will also need the 5spd rubber mount - but heres a hint, the auto and manual rubber mounts are the same rubber circle bolted to a different mounting plate. if you buy the MT plate, you can swap your original rubber onto the manual plate and bolt it onto the new tranny. then weld that bracket listed above to the car, and youll be all good. part number for the plate should be 98230 on majestic (dont have honda part number, but its easy to find in the dealers computer), labelled as #7 in this pic: http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...T&vinsrch=null

if i remember correctly, the holes from the a/t mount didnt line up with the bolts on the m/t tranny. they used a manual mount, fabricated a bracket and welded it to the frame.

your right they dont but i have a manual mount for my tranny so only the mount on the frame is needed
