motor plate...again!

[tinker2141]

Hey all, been a while since I posted.
So on to business, my savage was ****ing me off today, couldn't get a tune or a noticeable gear shift and I started digging into the problem. Turns out the tranny clutch is shot and I was tuning a 1 speed tranny, however, on tear down I noticed that my motor plate was broken again, this is the third plate I have been through, 1 flm and 2 stock, I believe that I incorrectly did the "better flm throttle mod" and so don't think I need a solution but would like some recommendations on the plate/motor mount since I stripped the truck down to a pile of screws and plastic I may as well upgrade while I am at it.

Thanks.

"better " as in mine ? that mount is a pita to get right ... PRC's carbon plate I don't know how it matches up with stock TVPs though. Its the only one I have had I cant break in a few big jumps

Thanks for the quick response. I don't have much stock left,bulkheads and bearings are about it, I have zero experience with CF never even seen a truck with it, is it that strong or are the people who use it that good?

BTW did you mean mount or mod?

PRC's CF is top grade stuff. If you break it I would say you have accomplished something.

HAHA I have to agree with Dooley. Yes our CF is the best you can find. I have to agree with Bank I went threw lots of mounts threw all brands and since I designed one and started running them, matter of fact i still have the very first ever made on one of my trucks and roughly 9-10 gallons on it and never had a problem. They will fit just like the stock plate but never fail, they are a little thicker but well worth the money.

For CF truck pictures see my link in my sig of my XL Carbon FLUX.
