Key Features

• Fits 2020-2026 Ford Explorer, rear
• Automatic transmission mount for rear mounting location
• Built to OEM standards using CAD/CAM engineering methods
• Natural and Styrene Butadiene rubber construction for abrasion resistance and aging stability
• Rubber hardness is matched to vehicle application requirements
• Chemlock bonding agent helps create a strong rubber-to-metal bond
• Hydraulic mount design is used where OE application calls for added vibration damping

Detailed Description

This Anchor 3629 transmission mount is engineered for the rear position on the Ford Explorer and is designed to help isolate drivetrain movement while reducing vibration. It is a direct-fit style replacement for 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 Ford Explorer models with the rear mount application. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Anchor uses OEM-based design standards, rubber compounds selected for durability, and a bonded rubber-to-metal construction to maintain consistent support under load. The part number 3629 is also referenced as a rear transmission mount in interchange listings, including Marmon Ride Control A20040.

What It Helps Fix

• Excess drivetrain vibration felt through the vehicle
• Worn or collapsed rear transmission mount support
• Noise caused by deteriorated rubber isolation
• Movement at the transmission mounting point
• Harshness during acceleration or shifting

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the rear mount location and confirm vehicle fitment before installation. Inspect adjacent drivetrain mounts and hardware mounting points for wear, corrosion, or damage before replacing the mount. Proper alignment during installation helps the transmission sit correctly and reduces stress on the new mount.

Quality Assurance

Anchor designs this mount to OEM standards and uses controlled rubber hardness, heat-treated Grade 5 bolts where included, and a Chemlock bonding process to support consistent fit and durability. The part number 3629 is manufactured for application-specific performance on the Ford Explorer platform.
