Mopar 6G72 Solid Delrin Transmission Mount - $75 shipped

 

This is a solid Delrin (Acetal) transmission motor mount for SOHC (12-valve) 3.0L V6 (6G72) equipped Chrysler vehicles. This mount is the same for all three transmissions available with the V6 (each transmission has a different shaped metal bracket, but the rubber mount is the same), and in all the available models the engine was used. The mount bracket must be the updated (per a TSB) bracket for this mount to fit. Most vehicles should already have this updated bracket. This updated bracket is shown below.

The mount is made of one solid piece and uses the stock diamond-shaped bushing. As shown below, the stock mount is hollow and not very strong.

With the stock mount, the movement is much more pronounced with the 5-speed, but is still quite apparent with the automatic transmissions also.

Personally, I had destroyed (2) stock transmission motor mounts in my car. I have been using the Delrin mounts since late 2000, and am very pleased with them.

The mount is installed just as the stock mount. Once on the car, it looks stock, unless one knows what to look for. Installation takes about 45 minutes, with floor jacks, socket set, and a hammer to knock the old mount out and fit the new mount in with.

Cheetah Delrin (Acetal) motor and transmission mounts are each machined from a solid block, and have either Stainless Steel or Aluminum bushings fit into the mounts to act as a point of contact for the connecting bolts. Delrin is an extremely strong and stiff plastic. It is commonly used in place of metal in applications where metal can not be used (magnetic, corrosion, or conducting / insulating reasons). These are much stiffer than polyurethane mounts, and it will not give or wear out. These mounts should never need to be replaced, unlike the stock units which are usually considered a wear item. These will give the same effect as solid metal mounts, without the intense vibration which metal transmits.

These mounts stop the jumping or twisting of the motor under the hood. This movement is caused by the rotating mass of the crankshaft and transmission components. With stock mounts, the engine will twist itself in the engine bay when the throttle is opened, or during high-speed shifts. Over time, this force will destroy the stock rubber mounts. When this happens, the rubber may split or rip, allowing the engine to potentially move inches back and forth. This can destroy CV joints, other mounts, and create even worse wheel-hop.

With these mounts, shifts will be much crisper. There should not be any noticeable added vibration on a car with any suspension modifications, and many times the mounts will smooth the vehicle vibrations by stopping excess movement caused from soft factory mounts. While pressing the gas pedal, a vehicle is much more responsive; as the motor does not lose as much torque twisting into the mounts.

At a price usually less than that of inferior stock mounts, these are not only a great performance item, but a bargain for each application.
