None of you guys are talking about the correct mount. On the 9-5 there is a bracket on the front of the tranny case that attaches to the subframe. The factory bushing has some play, but limits movement. The poly is solid. Maybe saab put play there for a reason? This mount set up is only on the 9-5!
We rebuilt the gearbox, the roll pin that holds the 3-4 selector fork fell out (perhaps due to vibration?)
When you're charging someone over $2k for a trans you want to make sure it will last! I don't like to do them in the first place, let alone twice if a stupid $20 rubber part is to blame. We reinstalled it, but at least my arse is covered as I mentioned it to the customer, who by the way is very happy with JAKs 3" downpipe!
Have fun saabers-
