Is there any way or do I need a new t case to be able to screw that bolt back on... it happened racing when I switched from 1st to 2nd gear. Any help is appreciated thanks

im 100% sure there is no motor mount on the t case. the t case bolts up to the tranny with 6 bolts and thats the only thing holding it. there is a mount on the back of the tranny, and if you broke that it can just be replaced. pics would be very helpful btw

if you snap a bolt in there or you broke where the bolt bolts into to if you snap the bolt in there you can always get someone to drill it out and retap the treads if you broke the case it self sounds like you will need a new tranny case

The rear mount actually is bolted to the transmission...there is 2 pieces a black one which bolts to the trans and a aluminum one which bolts to it and has a hole in the center.

there is no motor mount on the transfer case. theres a motor mount bracket on the rear of the transmission though. the evo only has 4 mounts.

rear roll stopper ( engine/trans mount)
front roll stopper (engine/trans mount)
pass side engine mount
driver side engine mount (that bolts to the top of trans)

I highly doubt you damaged the black bracket behind the trans, as its strong as hell, so im guessing you damaged the actual rubber mount..

The bracket is the only thing bolted to the trans, the actual mount is bolted to the vehicle. I'll get you a picture of it here in a minute.
