Ok... I got this deal on a set of new ES PolyUrethane Bushings (I paid like $5.00 for it)

The Energy Suspension package states...

ES P/N 3.1109G

Transmission Crossmember Bushings
82-92 Camaro/Firebird with Secondary Crossmember


I bought them because they were new and they were cheap (new price for these according to Summit is $18.00)...but for the life of me I don't know where this Secondary Transmission CrossMember is located on my car... even if my car came equipped with one! LOL...

Anybody know if certain 3rd gen's got this secondary xmember? Ie: IROC's? GTA's? 1LE equipped cars? Firebirds? Camaro's? Z28's? RS's? LT's? Automatic trannies? Manual Tranny's??

hehehe... I may have a part that is useless to me but I have a lot of thirdgen buds so it might be good for them... and if that doesn't pan out I can always put it up on eBay and double my money If I can use it I certainly will!!

And before you say " Sure just look under your car" ... my car is in storage and it's not easily accessible (involves a ferry ride and some other great adventures! lol

Well, seeing as we only have one crossmember (crossmember in the traditional sense, as in some piece running perpendicular to the subframes), I'm not too sure.

I'm going to take a guess, tho, and guess that the "secondary crossmember" bushings are the torque arm bushings. Anybody want to disagree?

This question came up not too long ago. Maybe I saw it on the tranny board. I thing someone posted an answer to it but I can't remember what that was.

Edit: seems like some cars had them and some didn't.

My car is also in storage but I remember my car has the two piece crossmember. (My car originally was a 305/700R4)

There is a smaller CM that joins the tranny mount to the tranny itself. This smaller CM unit is then bolted to a larger crossmember with two large bolts and there are two round (aprox 2.5" OD) bushings sandwiched in between the two CMs.

It must be these two round bushing that you picked up for $5.
