Great work! Going to replicate for my FB25 into my van. Thanks!

Great videos super easy to follow, im looking into Subaru swaps for sure

[@WolfofWisco]

Thanks! The Subi swap with the automatic Subaru transmission is a game changer!

Looks great! Not sure about that forward trans hanger mount. Looks a little weak.

Hi, are you still using the Subaru EJ25 Automatic Gearbox ? Please let me know how I got the AT Gearbox adapter

[@lmfarms4611]

On the new eng mounts to the sidewalls do you need a rubber pad between the frame and eng mount?

[@WolfofWisco]

No rubber is needed between the frame and the steel engine mount (cross member). The rubber engine mounts are the OEM Subaru mounts bolted to the engine - so there’s rubber at that location just like the donor car- 1999 Subaru Legacy

Hey man, nice job with the fab of the engine mount. Did you have to make that? With the populasrity of this swap, are there pre-made options you could buy?

[@WolfofWisco]

Hey Keith! There are some mounts available for around $300 plus shipping. I had the steel and the time available so I made mine. Cheers!
