Rev Up Your Ride: Unleashing the Power of the Ford Performance Transmission Mount

Benefits of a Ford Performance Transmission Mount

 

Hey there, truck enthusiasts! Today, we're diving into the nitty-gritty of a popular upgrade for your Ford truck – the Ford Performance Transmission Mount. We get a lot of questions about this upgrade in the shop, so we thought we'd share our expertise with you.

Why Ditch Your Stock Transmission Mount?

Here at TTS, we're all about boosting your truck's performance, and the Ford Performance Transmission Mount delivers some serious perks:

  • Kiss Wheel Hop Goodbye: This mount is a game-changer when it comes to putting the power down. It minimizes engine movement during hard acceleration, which translates to less wheel hop and way better traction – especially important for those quick launches.

  • Shifting Nirvana: Say hello to crisp, clean gear changes! The firmer mount provides more feedback from the drivetrain, giving you a more controlled and enjoyable driving experience. You'll feel the difference!

  • Built to Last: Crafted from top-notch materials and reinforced for durability, this mount is ready to handle the demands of high-performance driving. It's an investment that will stand the test of time.

  • Silence is Golden: Tired of a noisy cabin? This mount helps isolate those pesky vibrations, resulting in a quieter ride. Trust us, your ears will thank you.

Installation: What You Need to Know

While the installation process may vary slightly depending on your Ford model, here's a general overview:

  1. Safety First: Park on level ground, engage that parking brake, and use wheel chocks. Safety is key!

  2. Jack It Up: Raise the front of your truck using a jack and secure it with jack stands at the designated support points. Refer to your owner's manual to find these points.

  3. Access Granted: You might need to remove some components for better access, like the air intake or battery.

  4. Locate and Remove: Find the transmission mount (usually beneath the engine, connected to the transmission and chassis), and using the appropriate tools, loosen and remove the bolts holding the stock mount in place.

  5. Upgrade Time: Position the Ford Performance Mount, making sure it aligns perfectly with the mounting points. Tighten those mounting bolts to the torque specifications outlined in the instructions (a torque wrench is your best friend here!).

  6. Button It Up: Double-check all connections, reinstall any removed components, and carefully lower your truck using the jack.

A quick test drive afterward will confirm everything is working as it should. And as always, if you have any doubts or aren't comfortable tackling this yourself, our team of expert technicians at TTS is just a phone call away.
