Resolve Your Transmission Mount Troubles with TTS: Expert Tips and Solutions!

Transmission Mount Troubles? TTS Can Help!

Hey there, truck enthusiast! I see you're having transmission mount troubles. Don't worry, TTS is here to help!

Symptoms:

• Clunks and bangs: Hear those during acceleration, deceleration, or gear shifts? That's your mount talking.

• Cabin vibrations: Especially at certain speeds or under load? Your mount's getting tired.

• Leaking transmission fluid: Could be a damaged pan gasket. That ain't good!

• Gear-shifting troubles: A worn mount can mess with proper transmission support.

• Engine or transmission damage: A bad mount leads to more movement and vibration, which can hurt other parts.

Causes:

• Just wear and tear: Mounts work hard – constant pressure, heat, vibration – they wear out over time.

• Transmission heat: Makes the mount brittle, more likely to fail.

• Engine/transmission vibes: Too much shaking wears the mount down faster.

• Bumped a curb? Direct impact can damage the mount.

Choosing the Right Transmission Pan Gasket Material

Let's talk gasket materials! Here's the lowdown:

• Cork: Cheap and easy, good on uneven surfaces. BUT: wears out faster, not as strong.

• Rubber: Tougher, seals better, handles most fluids/temps. BUT: pricier, not as forgiving on uneven surfaces.

• Silicone: Super flexible, seals like a champ, high-temp resistant. BUT: $$$, needs careful install.

• Felt: Budget-friendly, easy to put in, some fluid resistance. BUT: least durable, shrinks, loses seal.

• Composite Gaskets: Mix and match materials for extra strength. BUT: can be pricey, needs special tools/glues.

What to Think About:

• Truck type: Check your manual or ask us for the recommended gasket type/material.

• How you drive: Towing a lot? Performance driving? Go for a stronger option like rubber or silicone.

• Budget: Cork or felt are cheapest, but might need replacing sooner.

Recommendation

For most folks, a rubber or composite gasket is a good mix of strength and cost. But talk to TTS about YOUR needs! We'll find the perfect fit.
