    Transmission mount not lining up

    Ok guys so good news, the motor is in!!! Only trouble is that the transmission mount is not lining up the car..... never had this issue before. The car is a 86na and the trans is the 30A. So whats the deal?

    Well, one of the t-tops wasn't latched real well… God only knows where that t-top flew off to at 150+ mph. Didn't scratch the car or anything, just a boom and it was gone. I sure as hell didn't stop to see where it went. I didn't see any stories on the news… so that's a plus.

    I'm thinking its the one from the 86, but I can't be sure. I had two and tossed one, thinking they were all the same. Doh!

    Ok well looks like the brackets are different on the 84-86 and 87-89 brackets. So that must be the deal. Too bad I already customized the other mount haha

    Oh well..... will update after junkyard tomorrow!
