Re: 92 lsl clunking at accel

Holy crap!!!

$100 for a chunk o' rubber?

I saw some listing for a tranny mount for some other Subaru when I was looking and it was $98, so it sounds like you're right on the money (pun). Holy jeebies. MAN! They've really got you where they want you, eh? <sigh>

My wife is less in love with this car every time some new expense comes up (considering all that's getting poured into it, I guess I can understand that) - at least I warned her it was probably going to be expensive. I was thinking "as much as $80 or so". WOW.

Well, thanks for the info - especially the part #. I appreciate it.

<can't stop shaking my head at the cost of a chunk o' rubber>

EDIT: Man I feel like I just got mugged... $132 incl tax!!! ($123 before taxes) I called Anthony's in Kelowna, BC and it was "a little over a hundred" but shipping would've been a while and would have made it almost as much. What is it with motor/tranny mounts? Is the rubber made from something harvested on Pluto? DAMN! This car had better run like a dream when this is done! I'll be super pissed if this tranny swap doesn't work out for some reason. (I'm not expecting it to go wrong since my brother-in-law is a master mechanic, but I also know my typical luck... )
