Who's got a 1G AWD Auto DSM? Need some help!

[vassil]

Hi Guys,

I decided to make some front tubular cross member, similar to the one's Paul Volk has been offering but better and chaper. They are either one piece or three pieces. I do know for a fact that they fit the 1G AWD M/T 91-94, but no idea on the automatics. Had a few people volunteer to send me some, but that didn't pan out. Someone from Ohio measured his front crossmember and motormount and said that it is IDENTICAL to the manual tranny cars, just the motormount bracket on the block (front/rear) is different. I want to confirm this as there are a few people that want to buy them. If someone has a 1G auto and would mind trying one for me or if I can just come and try it myself rather than mailing it ... that would be awesome.

You can either reply to this thread or send me a PM.

Thanks in advance.

Here are a couple of pics of the part that I made.

Front motor mount is different, if memory serves correct the front and rear brackets are different actually.

My mounts are the same as a manual.

vassil as you know i was an auto, but now i swapped over to manual. i used the same crossmember, front mount, and rear mount im 99% sure. dont know if that does anything for ya. the car is up here in rochester if it would help ya even though now it has a manual trans in it

On a 1G, the front and rear should be the same since they attach to the engine, not the tranny. 2G's would obviously be different.

There is a thread on tuners talking about the differences.
if u ever come up here i have a 1g auto awd on jackstands.

Thanks for all the reply's guys. I got it all sorted out. I ordered a front rollstop from Satan, figured out the difference and made the jig. Tested it on a fellow member's car and it fits. YAY!
