Default Missing a mount.

I am about to finish my swap and i'll be running for a couple days without the front tranny mount in my EK. I know it's not really good, I dont plan on driving stupid either, I need the car to get to work.(20 miles total)

Any real damage could happen to he point I should consider not driving it or just being carefull should be ok?

Missing one out of five mounts doesn't seem that bad, but I wouldn't want to take that chance.

the tranny mount is a rather large, important mount. i would NOT drive with it. you will be putting enough weight on the front tranny mount to destroy the rubber insert in the mount. then you could be in serious trouble.

are you using stock rubber inserts in the mounts? by the way im only using 3 mounts on my b18c1 hatch upper tranny, rear and driver side mounts. but i got all polyuretane inserts.
