Help Hint of the Day, Transmission mount Direction

[zKars]

While tinkering with transmission isolators the other day, I noticed a little something that might be helpful that I do not remember seeing before.

Often I stare at the transmission isolator as I’m about to put it on and wonder (again) which way around it goes. Which way is front?

Well on a genuine Nissan mount, there is a little clue, if you know where to look

Do you see it?

 

 

Now I should go look at a diff isolator and see if the same little arrow is hidden under some dirt and oil

I do not see this little clue on another one that I have that is an aftermarket item. 

Another reason to buy Nissan if you can afford it.

Pretty cool.  So my "snow plow" thought, from the drawings, was correct.
