The 5th in this case being the much un-loved snub-mount receiver bracket, a.k.a. the 5th mount. Unlike the stock arrangement, the mod allows you to then employ the snub itself in both the up ( during accel.) and down (during de-acccel.) directions, which is going to help eliminate drive-line shunt (the clunk-pause-clunk experienced while underway, when you get off and then on the gas), make life easier for your transmission-mounts; and improve gear-shift ability. This mod is a walk in the park (wrecking-yard actually). I love this mod, perhaps you will too, it's quick, easy, cheap, effective & invisible. Did this years ago and took no photos. Installed subject bracket with a long fat and soft full cylindrical poly snub of Mance's. Stumbled onto this E-bay bracket photo recently & here we are. The bracket I used came from a 1993 B4 V6 sedan (see 1st photo). I note, there are today other Audi brackets, both steel and alloy, which with some persuasion, may also work equally as well; as more suitable substitutes for the original B3 item (2nd photo)?
