you would see it leaking, cause if it where cracked the fluid would be sitting between the block and the bellhousing and would be dripping out

true…nothing is leaking and we would have seen it when we put on the rear mount.

yeah, plus the fact that the car is rarely ever launched and allowed to axle hop I doubt it would be cracked

The tranny case cracking isnt too common. But it does happen. I will agree though, the front suspension geometry on this car is garbage. It allows way too much wheel hop.

There is a TSB for wheel hop causing transmission cases to be cracked and allow fluid on the clutch. Its known to be abuse and is not covered. FYI
