my 35th had a vibration when shifting/decelerating and the previous owner said it had to do with the trans mount. So today i go under there and finally notice that the trans crossmember bolt on the drivers side wasnt fully threaded...when I tried to finish screwing it I noticed it just spun around. Long story short, the bolt just spined and was not at all threaded...which explains why i was getting this vibration. Once i finally got the bolt out I noticed that the reason it only spun was because it had actually broken the base where it threaded in.
Does anybody know what the bolt actually threads to? I mean, i dotn think it could have broken a piece of the metal frame...im wondering if its some sort of clip thing or bracket that the bolt threads to and not the frame. Bellow is a pic of both bolts...the passingers side is the good one and the one with the metal piece is from the drivers side. Any help is appreciated.
