Trans to Rear Coupler Play

<< < (5/5)

PSweeney:
It worked well for us, but it took some figuring. We remounted the whole deal three times before we settled on this. I did speak to another guy with a similar issue and he used saddles and a heavy zip tie which allowed some compliance. 

I think it's really the door car guys who suffer most  in this regard. Wider rear track, more torque reaction and a solid mounted trans just becomes a stressed member.  Use a stock glide with a thin bellhousing and they start cracking bellhousing.  Then they hack them off for a Ultrabell, problem masked.

Curly1:
I would say that if you are having problems and need more than normal clearances you may need stronger engine limiters.
