JCL, you mentioned sending out the converter to be rebuilt. So they are rebuildable? I seem to recall reading somewhere that they couldn't be rebuilt, maybe it was the guy from California Transmissions when I spoke to him a while back. I'll check with the guy I spoke to today about the price of doing the whole thing what the cost would be for just the converter.
I think I'm going to take on the challenge. I'll prep a nice clean work area before I get started.
So here's the sub-frame and steering rack after getting all cleaned up.
Here's a close up of the motor mount. Looks in real good shape to be and is very solid to the touch.
I popped one of them out, and they appear to have been made in 2006. No idea when they were actually installed.
Here's one of the bushings. Looks like I can still see a little of the paper label that was on it when installed. So I would think recently replaced? I do see a bit of a crack in the rubber, but perhaps that's pretty normal?
