.... more than 1/8" ?

Re: the WBX transmission I've installed in my '81.

As anticipated, the front bracket on transmission sounds like it's
contacting frame under load. i.e. going uphill I hear the engine
vibrate through to cab.

How much room should there be between transmission front bracket and frame?

I see ~ 1/8" .

Pretty sure the rubber in mount is ok.

Neil.
