Replacement A5380 Transmission Mount for 2006 Ford Freestar
✔️ Single Pack Direct Bolt Mount Supports V6 Manual Transmissions
This replacement unit anchors your automatic transmission to the chassis and controls drivetrain slack during heavy acceleration. Drivers replace worn insulators to kill that nasty clunk and lock your power slide in place for smooth everyday cruising. It handles routine stoplights, towing light loads, and canyon runs without binding or rattling loose.
✅ factory matched steel bracket withstands high torque loads without flexing
✅ thick rubber isolator absorbs engine pulse and protects nearby hvac ducts
✅ direct drop-in design skips welding or grinding thanks to laser cut holes
✅ solid core construction resists oil degradation under sustained highway miles
💡 WHAT CAUSES AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION MOUNTS TO CRACK AND LEAK UNDER HEAVY LOAD? The internal polyurethane bushings harden from repeated heat cycles and sudden torque spikes. Hardened bushings lose their damping capability, which forces the transaxle to tilt under load. - Metal-to-metal contact grinds away the cross member reinforcement plate over time - Loose mounting ears create dangerous backlash that shears off critical exhaust hangers - Installing a fresh A5380 bracket restores factory preload angles and seals the gap - This handy reinforcement stops chassis shake and extends the life of your clutch assembly
