Each order supplies one selected crossmember, one transmission mount and one pair of engine mounts. Black and red engine-insert colors are selected independently of the transmission-mount color.
The Gen V LT clamshell engine mounts work with the supplied swap mount pads. The transmission-specific Hawks crossmember supports the chosen gearbox through the included polyurethane transmission mount.
Color selection: The engine-mount color option changes the polyurethane insert color inside the black housings. The transmission-mount color option selects black 3.1108G or red 3.1108R. These are two separate required choices.
Photo reference: The complete-kit photos show red inserts with a red transmission mount, or black inserts with a black transmission mount. Mixed color selections are available through the two separate dropdowns. One representative crossmember is pictured; the supplied crossmember follows the transmission selection and may differ in shape.
- Verify the Gen V LT engine, transmission model and Hawks mounting arrangement before assembly.
- Follow the clamshell manufacturer instructions for insert orientation and housing assembly.
- Test-position the engine, transmission and crossmember. Check tunnel clearance, exhaust routing, shifter or linkage position, driveshaft requirements and driveline angle for your build.
- Follow the Energy Suspension transmission-mount instructions, including the required upper preload plate. Use the applicable fastener specifications for the installed components.
