Default Solid Transmission Mount

Does anyone make a solid transmission mount for the 968 that does not require swapping out the 968 cross member to a 951 cross member?

Thx.

Default Semi solid mount

I don't know of one so I just filled my stock one with 3M window weld and it is much stiffer that stock and does not transmit NHV like a solid one would.

i got semi-solid from Pelican parts. haven't installed it though.
It has only 2 assembly bolts to crossmember whereas 944-ones have four.

we can make solid one, friend of mine who fabricates stuff can take measurements from this item if there's interest.

Matti,

Was that the RS mount from Pargon?

let me check what paragon offers. No, pargon seems to offer similar four bolt systems as for 944. didn't find anything for 968 from their site.

I purchased this few years back, it was listed for 968 then, but now it seems that it is listed only for 944. Funny thing. Have to test if we can utilize it with 968.. if not, I have one tranny mount for sale.

+1 on this. Best compromise IMHO.
