dumb ES tranny mount question

Putting in my new ES tranny mount and noticed the bolt comes with 2 big washers and 1 little washer. Do all of these go on the side of the bolt head or does one of them go on the other side of the crossmember or does it even matter?

IS the ES mount like the poly mount? Does it comes with 3 holes on the mount and have 2 studs, 2 bolts, and 2 locking washers? If that is the case, you have to put the stud in as far as possible by putting one nut on, and double nutting the other nut until the stud is bottomed out (use the middle hole) since you only have 1 hole in the center of your trany cross member. after that put the mount on with the 2 bolts to the tranny, then on the put the cross member on, and put the locking washer on, and then the nut. That help?

The mount came with 2 bolts, 4 large washers, 2 smaller washers, and does have the 3 holes. I'm just wondering how many washers to use, where, and if it even really matters.

Well it seems all those extra washers are spacers of some sort. What i would do is put the stud into the middle hole and double nut it down. put it on and then put the nut and 1 locking washer on, see how it is, you dont want the tranny at to much of an angle. Sound good guys?

I only used one bolt and washer on both my 95 and my 93.
We only have one hole in the crossmember, but remember, that mount was made for a wide range of vehicles that may require the extra bolts/washers supplied with the kit.
