    I have a '39 3 speed ****** bolting to a F1 crossmember transmission mount.

    What should I use between bolting the ****** on to the mount?

    I would think that there would be a rubber biscuit that I could use. The gap is only about 3/4".

    What are you guys using?

    Thanks!

    No rubber. The trans bolts solid to the mount and the rubber is between the mount and the crossmember.

    Perfect!

    I just ordered another Transmission Mount from Mac's. The original one was in bad shape.

    We'll just need to modify the new one a little bit where it bolts together. There is that 3/4" gap and the bolt holes dont line up too well.

    So the ****** bolts right on to the mount and the rubber under the mount is the cushion..got it.

    Thanks for your help!

    Hey Skidmarks, I bought this crossmember from you.

    Think that might be hard to find.....

    Hello Junk Hunter,

    Ok help me out here.

    If I take off the section of the '39 ****** that has the ears that bolt to the transmission mount and use yours. I can then bolt right to the mount?

    That would be good, then I wouldnt have to modify the mount.

    The ****** is over at my friends shop, so, I dont have it in front of me to take a look at it.

    Yes, Please send a pic. I need to make sure I'm buying the right thing. I have a history of buying two of everything. I told my wife I was building an ark.
