hatchsub Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 They are on either side of the transmission. The radius rods bolt to them (the long rods that are bolted to the lower control arms). They bolt onto the frame rails using 19mm bolts if i remember right (could be 17mm). If this is a standard transmission car then the transmission crossmember bolts directly to these plates as well. You really cant miss them once you crawl under and look in the location i just said. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronxs400 Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 Thank you very much. Do you know what the difference is between auto and manual radius rod plates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbone Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Nope, you cant use AT radius caps with a MT trans. And vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatchsub Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 The auto transmissions in EA81s had a trans crossmember that bolted to the framerail farther back than the manual trans cars. If memory serves you can use manual radius rod plates on either a manual or auto car but not auto radius rod plates on a manual since the manual radius rod plates have the trans crossmember mount built in.
