This seems to be an issue with 04 & newer transmissions. The bosses that GM cast into the outside are offset, unlike the older transmission cases where all the bosses were at the same flat spacing, hence why a flat piece of steel works perfectly for a mount bracket. I have only seen one other trans the was quoted to be an older year with the same offset boss mounting. It will work the same with a longer bolt & a section of steel round stock to fit the bolt & spacing.
The vibration is probably due to being poly, unless you have something rubbing. This is the first complaint of vibration. But these mounts were designed for strength for heavily modded engines that rubber mounts dont stand a chance with.

thanks dan 85gt
Mounts can be shipped right away. You'll need to send in your stock Fiero V-6 alt bracket and I'll need a week or 2 to make it. The manual mount set is $275 and the alt bracket is $250.
------------------ '86 GTFB, white, auto '86 SE V6, red, auto, aeropackage Just purchased both Mar 17, 07. Neither running. Both 99.9% complete. May sell SE.
Ok my question is what does the stock bracket from the 2.8 have to do with the use of the 99+ gtp alt. maybe yours is different from lloyd but he does not use the stock fiero bracket. the two alts are different comletely as to how they mount......

The stock Fiero bracket is modified ith a GTP aluminum mount bracket for the dogbone. Skitime originated the idea and I found out that if you modify the GTP or Buick alt like I did, it will fit the Fiero bracket. So you can use the bigger GTP or Buick alt while utilizing this bracket.

I have a "curve ball" for you: I need some mounts for the 3800, your lower alt bracket, and trans mounts, but the trans I have is the new 6 speed auto from the G6 will your mounts fit that trans, or am I s.o.l? LOL

Do me a favor and take pic's of both sides where the brackets bolt up and i can tell you
I need mounts for a series II w/ 4t65eHD (both engine and tranny mounts). Could you PM pics of where yours mounts (on the engine and tranny) so I can see if it will line up with the axle setup that I am using?
All shipments are out ..........................whew !!! ......................... Florida Idaho CT PA Canada Virginia All that's left is 1 alt bracket to ship & 4 more to make.
i am now drooling in anticipation, anyone care to comment on how the stock fiero mounts live with the 3800 sc? i've got ones from autozone which have a LLTW?

I made some custom "lowering" mounts for my manual car. It involves a stiff rubber dodge truck mount with a saftey catch, bolted to a stock mount with the rubber burned off.
So far so good, they are really nice riding so far, the wear is unknown, but hey lifetime warrentee, so if I have to spend an hour swapping them out each oil chainge, I could care less. So far they still look new after like 15 track passes, and 1k driven miles.
Got a pic of that? I'm easily confused... you combined 2 mounts to make one that's lower??? I just don't want the vibe of the poly stuff I've had that in another car it sucked.... I will also be using a dogbone, I was thinking of trying to make/find something for the back of the motor like where the fiero had that little shock deal...
Administrator please, do for me as you have done for purple reign, Take out his mean spirited posts that started all this in "3800 quater mile times" and also "building a big block fiero". The spread of his rumors against me and his reputation damaging misinformation have existed on this site for almost a year, the effects of wich will linger on forever. My post about his blowing up, underpowered motors was purley factual and removed by you in less then a week to save his illfated reputation.

There was a issue a few years back about these mounts being off and he thought It was an attack https://www.fiero.nl/forum/A...0206-1-049118-3.html It appears it was a nice jester to fix them but I am wondering if this happened?? page 3 is the discussion.
Can anyone tell me what I"m doing wrong here, I just installed my 3 piece set of mounts on my 4t65EHD trans and the holes that the fiero trans mounts need to go through (the bolt that comes from the center rubber portion of the mount itself) are on a 90 Degree angle to the transmission, where as the stock mounts have this bolt, on both the front and rear mount going at more like a 45 degree angle.... I'm trying to get a hang of the PIP to post a picture of what I'm talking about doesn't want to take my pics due to the size....??
I'm guessing you just ordered the three mounts, the 2 that bolt to the trans and one that bolts to the engine..? if so you need the poly mounts that bolt to them and the cradle. the stock rubber mounts will not work with his brackets.

In this picture you have the trunk side mount on the firewall side of the cradle. This could be part of your problem that you are having. I am not forsure if PRs mounts work with the stock rubber mounts. I know the other vendors mounts will only work with there poly mounts they sell.

PR's mounts for the auto trans will ONLY work with the poly mounts only.

Un no I don't they don't interchange at all, I tried everything I could to do just that for the past several hours, the are in the right spot, the firewall side mounts flat, the trunk side one end sits up higher than the other.. the problem is the mounts themselves are not compatible, so I have to wonder why did this guy sell them to me as such???
and I'm only one guy 
We'll get your bracket done.
