ABSTRACT:
A mounting assembly mounts each end of a transmission cross member to a body rail. The mounting assembly includes a cross member sleeve which reduces pre-compression buckling of the transmission cross member. A rail sleeve stiffens the local area of the body rail while adding little weight. A cover plate is secured to the body rail via welding and to the rail sleeve with two bolts. A body rail bracket is also fixedly secured between the cross member sleeve and the body rail to increase the stiffness thereof. The increased stiffness reduces vibrational noise generated by a transmission of a motor vehicle.
