Just want to know if this is correct. They were easy to install, but there was no cursing or round II that I normal go through, so the whole thing feels weird. Here is what the installed mount looks like. Is this correct?



Thanks!

never looked at one up close. looks really nice!

no washers other than the bottom big'un?

Looks good. I'd take the time to get some appropriate length bolts. Extra threads are ugly.

WEvo makes nice stuff and takes the time to make sure it works. So no cursing is their standard.

Looks like mine.....after I tightened things up. I hope we're right.

These look great. Let me know what the "sound" difference to preformance ratio is? I know this is subjective but just an opinion.

I would still use the cup washer that prevents it from popping out of the transmission
wing thingy.

execpt when you write the check...

I installed mine when they first came out, and they look just like the above post's pics. Nicely done aftermarket parts, really first rate. They have helped with the shifting, and do not transmit any more vibrations from the drivetrain to the body.

I second that you should use the big cup washer on the top to keep it form sliding off.

Thanks everyone. I am going to add the big washer thingy tomorrow.

Let me know when you find the "Well Designed & Well Built, FOR CHEAP!" store.

It seems there should be material around the tabs. If one snapped, the others would snap in quick succession. I guess as long as there no reports of such I'll in peace.

didn't say it wasn't WORTH it, but sometimes those checks are hard to write, even if you know you have to write it...

Chappy,

What did you use as a spacer? Did you turn that down?


I went to use the cup washer, but the WEVO mount does not sit flat in it. The washer is too big. , so the mount doesn't seat in cup. I guess I am off to the hardware store for some washers.

Diameter of washer compared to the cup:


Gap between the bottom of the cup washer and the WEVO washer.

I'm not gonna add the big washer. I'll let ya know in the trans falls out.....don't hold your breath.

Posted by: iamchappy Jun 20 2009, 05:58 PM

I used the stock thick washer that was there before...I think.......

Posted by: Zimms Jun 21 2009, 07:43 AM

My old mounts just went straight into the rubber mount. I ended up using a few washers, 1 3/8" OD, stacked to 3/16" high, and it did the trick.



All done for now. Time to move the fuel pump and sort out some wiring gremlins.

I was browsing the wevo site yesterday, these aren't even that $$ anymore, they were much more when they were first introduced IIRC. for the current price, I think they are probably a great value...


their other products are still $$ tho

Posted by: Cap'n Krusty Jun 23 2009, 09:52 AM

Better go back and get 4 8mm bolts 10 mm longer, add 2 flat washers on each one, and use nyloc nuts. Gonna look pretty silly draggin' that tranny down the road when those plain nuts back off ..............................

I'm looking at the Wevo transmission mounts to replace my PMS solid mounts to lessen chassis vibration.

Blue pads, or black pads?

Black are a tiny bit softer.

Sorry to use this ancient thread.

Using the solid 911 "sport" mounts ,so far appear firm enough.

I have a set of the Wevo blue trans mounts that I'll be using on my 6.
Some Wevo info here:

Has anyone tried the new URO 914-6 trans mounts yet?

I bought those and will be using them . for the price you can't beat it.

Posted by: campbellcj May 3 2019, 07:41 AM

I have the Wevo blue ones and have been very happy, though not much to compare with besides worn-out OE...

Posted by: Larmo63 May 3 2019, 08:28 AM

The black pads are softer. I'm going to go to these transmission mounts, but I'm deciding which pads to buy, blue or black.
