[Fot] TR-4 rear tranny mount "tricks"

[rkramer3 at austin.rr.com]

I have been filling the cavity inside the TRF provided rear mount with silicone, a little at a time to completely fill the cavity, emulating the gel shock absorbtion found in running shoes. This is done with the hope that the silocone will absorb some harmonics at the same time as adding some extra adhersion to the rubber and metal parts. It has worked for a couple of years. I use the little angle pieces on the sides to keep it from squeezing out.
