Solid Transmission Bracket
KLA has a new solid transmission mounting bracket to replace the rubber mount. This would take out any play in the transmission moving about.

Solid mount may be too stiff.
Try the suggestion from knfeparty first-if you do not like it, you've only lost a few dollars and time.

I dissagree. There are people who use solid mounts, no problem. There's too much vibration for any OE company to impliment something like this from the factory. There's a chance you could break something, but more of a chance with a soggy mount! Ask me how I know. I fragged a CV joint already and I haven't even had my car for 6 months. I can tell the trans is moving back there!

The concern is when you're using a solid mount at one end of the drivetrain and a rubber/flexible mount at the other end, for instance a solid trans mount and then stock engine mounts, or vice versa, because the extra torsional stress on the drivetrain may lead to some sort of issue later on.
