I chose to use this style of poly mounts for the transaxle. Right now, I like them and I'll make use of them.
I tapped the holes on the steel plate for the mount to 3/8"-16. I will weld a stud in there but for now some short bolts went in.

I ground them flush.

Completed heavy duty mount assembly. This is 1/4" plate and a fail-proof positive lock poly mount.

Now on to the rear trans mount. I have a few idea's for this but I'd like to try this one first.
Using cardboard, I made the basic shape. This is the easiest way to visualize what might work.

Then I transferred to some 16 gauge steel that I have here. Piece by piece, it takes shape.
Here's the starting point.

Remember the holes I tapped earlier? I'll use two of them.

The end result will have an opening for the fill hole. I took it out for the mock up.

I was trying hard to not cut anything off the transaxle. Well, this offending area has to go.

Moving on.

I'll add some gussets here.

It looks like the rear mount will clear the sway bar.

I might just add a little tab from the rusted bolt(s) to the rear upright part.

Now that I have this tacked up, I'll take it off and create this is Solidworks. I want to have a design that I can cut on the laser and bend on the brake. Yes I'm taking my time here. I want the final result to look good, be strong and fit well. I'll cut this on the laser using 1/8" aluminum since we have a lot of it. Then I'll form it and put it back on the transaxle and see how I like it. Only then, I'll cut it one more time but using heavier steel and bolt in place.
