So i used the transmission mount to jack up the car. Have done it several times before but today it snapped. Ok so clearly that isnt a jack point. I screwed up.

So i think i can simply unbolt it, purchase a new one and just bolt it back on right?

Pretty sure i can’t drive without it right? Just making sure.

Ultimately my question is how bad is this? The transmission itself looks fine.

This happened to me while I was putting my motor into my car and was using it as a jack point to hold the trans up. It's very easily replaceable but I wouldn't recommend driving it. My car made a grinding noise when I went to move it, almost like the input shaft wasn't on the correct plane.

Cool thanks! The transmission is pretty strong. You concerned it can be damaged?
