03 Tacoma 5sp Tranmission Bracket

Super Doody

I've been hearing a slight pinging noise when I accelerate from a dead stop. I thought maybe one of the bolts on the transmission bracket was loose. I double checked all the bolts and all seems fine. What I did notice was a space between center flange bolt and the rubber washers. Is this normal?



Maybe this center bolt limits vertical movement while the other bolts on the side of the transmission and on the cross member limits lateral movement?
