I would recommend the poly mount. It is stronger and wont tear like the crappy rubber one you had.

And yes, it's the brace that goes across the subframe and the transmission tail rests on it.

Here's how to fix it/identify if it's broken. (This excerpt can be found in the Tech section. Thanks to Drew for the write up. https://www.thirdgen.org/trannymount)

"This article will step you through the removal and installation of a transmission mount.

Using a Poly mount is recommended. However it can cause more vibrations to be transferred to the car. Additional complications can arise with a poly mount due to its size being slightly out of spec.

Further conflicts can occur with sub-frame connectors and the poly mount.

After doing one tranny mount, doing it in the future shouldn’t take more than 15 minutes.

1. Raise and support the car with jack stands.
Codename 47's EDIT: Try to look at the transmission mount now before you rip everything apart. You might be able to identify if it's broken.
2. Remove the 15mm nut from the tranny mount stud.
3. Use a 2x4 at least the width of the transmission pan on top of your jack and raise the transmission a few inches.
4. Remove the two 14mm bolts from the mount to the transmission.
5. Remove the mount, if it can’t be removed raise the transmission higher and try again.
6. Install the new mount using the original 14mm bolts to the transmission and either the supplied cross member to mount bolts or the original 15mm bolt.
7. Torque the bolts to spec.
8. Return the car to the ground and go for a drive."

so the one i was looking at is not the right one and wont work or are thay the same?

 

Get the rubber OE replacement. Too many cars with weird vibrations running that poly mount. I'd avoid it.

 

Just go to your local parts store and they will have the stock rubber one. Tell them the year/make/model of your car and they well get it for you.

 

ok well got the part and put the new one on and no more banging thanks
what was macking the noise was it the pan hitting the cross member or what?

 

The transmission hitting the floor of the car. Torque arm lifts the trannsmission.

 

ok good to know thanks
