WilloCo Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 So I'm swapping my trans with a M97 that was in a 95 1100rs. The bushings on the top do not have the threaded studs that go into the bottom of the battery box. The old ones ripped in half when I tried to pull them from my old trans. Should I bother getting the correct ones? The bushings I have are in good shape and just don't have the threaded rod sticking out. Thoughts? I'm thinking that it won't matter and those bushings seem be very expensive: part 61212305050 for reference. MSRP is 28.13/each! Link to comment

Afternoon WilloCo That is a darn good question & easy for me to answer as my money isn't involved (use the correct mounts). That is one of those things that once you buy & install the correct items you will forget about the cost in a few weeks, but if you make-do with the incorrect parts it will bother you for a l-o-n-g time. You REALLY don't want to have to take it apart later to install those mounts as THAT is a lot of work. Link to comment
Jim Moore Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Hate those things! I normally cut them off because it's such a pita to slide them under the battery box when installing the transmission. that being said, if I say one thing and DR says something else, do what DR says. Link to comment
