Hi,
I just replaced both motor mounts and the tranny mounts on my 90 240 with new ones from FCP Groton. The exhaust pipe is now hitting the tranny crossbar. It primarily does it when starting and when in reverse. I don't think it does it when in drive. My guess is that I raised the engine up enough to make it start hitting. The new mounts also seem "springier" than my old hardened ones. I've tried to adjust the intermediate muffler to get maximum clearance. Any other thoughts or ideas?
Thanks!
Lyle
