Whiteline Gearbox Mount Bushing – 2007-2014 Ford Mustang

Whiteline Gearbox Mount Bushing – 2007-2014 Ford Mustang

Firm Up the Gearbox Mount on the S197 Mustang
The Whiteline KDT962 gearbox mount bushing for the 2007-2014 Ford Mustang (S197) is a polyurethane replacement for the OEM rubber transmission mount bushing. When the factory rubber softens, the transmission gains movement under gear changes and throttle transitions — producing shift imprecision and drivetrain vagueness. Whiteline’s polyurethane replacement reduces this movement for a more direct, connected drivetrain feel.

S197 Mustang Drivetrain Mount
The S197 Mustang — covering the 2007-2014 production run of GT and V6 variants — uses a rubber transmission mount that softens with age and high-performance use. Under the torque loads of hard acceleration and gear changes, a worn mount allows the transmission to move in its mounting, producing imprecise shifts and the characteristic drivetrain slop of an aging muscle car.

S197 GT and Performance Applications
The Mustang GT in S197 trim produces substantial torque that accelerates transmission mount wear. Drivers who track their GT or use it for drag racing will see mount wear earlier than normal street drivers. Whiteline’s polyurethane replacement is appropriate for any performance-oriented S197 application.

Simple Press-Fit Installation
Remove the mount bracket, press out the old rubber, press in the Whiteline polyurethane unit, reassemble. Standard tools, straightforward process, and immediately noticeable improvement in drivetrain feel.

Why Choose Whiteline

Whiteline has been engineering suspension components from their facility in Australia since 1979. Every product in their catalog is developed with a clear goal: measurable improvement in handling, stability, and tyre contact. Whiteline’s polyurethane bushings, sway bars, control arms, and alignment correction kits are engineered using finite element analysis and validated on track before they reach the market. Their components are direct-fit, bolt-on solutions designed for enthusiasts who want real performance gains without fabrication or custom work.

The RallySport Take

An effective and accessible drivetrain feel improvement for the S197 Mustang. Direct improvement in shift quality and throttle response precision. Budget an afternoon for the job — bushing replacement is not complicated but does require the correct press tools and clean installation technique. Apply grease to all polyurethane-to-metal interfaces and assemble at ride height for correct bushing set. The improvement in chassis feel is immediate and the polyurethane will outlast whatever rubber is in there now.
