Are you using an adaptor plate to bolt transfer on or a divorced transfer case , There are two types of mount , solid of the chassis and a centre gearbox mount or a solid gearbox mount and two side mounts . A couple I have seen when using adaptor plate to transfer , they combine the mount to hold both , just depends on what you are doing , Cheers Paul.

I have a hilux with v6 auto and its solid mounted to the chasis with the standard rubber mount under the transfer. I think it some times allows two much twist movement in comps, has anyone got any pics of how they do the solid gearbox mount with the side mounts as it sounds like it might provide more support.
