so, what's the deal with the three RG550's? are you running different pickups in all them or anything, or just wanted to get three different colors, or what?

They all have differnt pickup configurations. One has a rosewood fingerboard and the other two maple. One of the maples has a custom headstock where I chopped it and made it shorter with did 4 tuners on one side and 2 on the other. but yeah, they are all different colors as well.

I never really realized the A/T and the M/T inners were different until recently (tranny swap for Hurley97)

I *may* have a spare M/T rear mount, I will check soon...

i wonder why they are different. i mean, it looks like they bolt in the same spot, so why would toyota change the shape of the rubber?

I have no clue why they would do that Art, maybe less stress on them with an auto ????

I changed out Steff's rear mount to a filled one last week and something about her old mount looked funny to me (it was her old A/T mount I realized 10 minutes ago), it's in my trunk right now and it looks exactly like 95celGT's. I will edit my first post to reflect this development.

You put the rear insert in the front. Switch them out. The other insert should go in that mount and the piece you have in your hand should go in the front.

I can't get the 17mm bolt out of my front motor mount.... this is such a bitch, everything under my car is so rusty, I've broken most of the 10mm bolts holding the plastic on and one of the 12mm bolts holding the cross member on. I'm so pissed off right now. Now I'm giving up and trying to put everything back together, and i can't get my ****ing rear motor mount in place!!! ARRRGH!!

Did you soak everything down with P'Blaster (or whatever your favorite penetrating oil is) first? Also heat is your friend. Use a torch on the bolt.

I had my mount put in.. and best way to put it is that the car feels well connected or tight. A minor but noticeable vibration at idle and thats all.

They should fit both, unless you have a strange mount like the one in one of the previous posts.

it isn't strange, it is an AUTO tranny rear mount. If you want I can take side by side pics of the 2, I have them here in front of me. The inner rubbers are different.

no problem Kirk here they are. Right now I don't know if the MR2's auto mount is the same as ours but i will find out tomorrow when my EPC is back.

the auto mount is on the left in all of the pics.




AUTO ^^


MANUAL ^^




notice the auto shifter cable bracket on the auto mount ^^

I will post up the part #s for these tomorrow and years they were made (I want to make sure these aren't just a 96+ thing with us)
hope this helps

Couldn't you cut the rubber to match the insert or atleast get damn close? I really hope so BOTH my mounts are screwed on my AT 94.
